I have the a.c. evaporator core and heater core removed from the 71 charger. The heater core I can Tell it leaked
I was wondering if a radiator shop can test or do anything with the ac core. The rest of the a.c. system has been removed many years before we got the car. I'd like to have it in working order again
If it's possible for a shop to do this. What would be a reasonable amount to clean and do all that they do to them?

they can pressure test them, I've had my local radiator shop do it for me when rebuilding a dash and having the A/C Evap Core & Heater Core out...I didn't want to put stuff back in that would need to be replaced when I put the dash back together.

Call Glen Ray radiator, or vintage air, they can take care of you. Then get a heater box rebuild kit from Detroit Muscle Technologies.

I guess I don't fully understand how/what the evaporator core is. The bigger tubes are just like a heater core?? What is the small tubes copper tubes that tie into the bigger ones?
