I was wondering
if there might be holes on the outer edges that I couldn't see. So there
are 2/3 more holes than can be seen in the pictures. Obviously, there's
enough flow to do the job. Also, I noticed on the second picture there
appears to be a hole or two that appear to be plugged. I would surely want
to be certain that my system is thoroughly flushed when using a/c cores
(especially used ones) so as to prevent blockage of these small holes.

Fellows: I know I don't know what I am talking
about; so, if this is a waste of your time, I apologize. Many years ago, when I
was a porsche man and a good friend was attempting to convince me that the mazda
rotary engine was a better, much cheaper way to go sports care racing. He
was having oil temp problems. Local stock car fellows, for whom he
built/balanced engines, were using gm evaporators (not
condensors.) We looked at several and found some had much larger cooling tubes
that worked better with heavier oil that large clearance american engine stock
car engines needed than others. Since we were working our way through local
man-malls (junkyards, for those not familiar with the phrase) those we
could/couldn't find were not costing much, it anything. I don't remember what we
found to be the best; but, I do know we wound up stringing a couple together to
produce great cooling results. I think they were mid 50s to later cadilacs,
buicks, big gm stuff, just not sure. Ya'll might want to look into that aspect.
Look at old junk and compare, see what/if there are any differences anymore and
tell the rest of us. <g>
