I'm making a habit of asking lot of quesitons lately. Anyway, I'm making a lan box in a brief case. I already have heater core.(68' corvette, 4 cyliner) It a good size for a normal case. It's about 6 1/2x 6 1/2 x 2.5. However, this will not do in my brief case. I really though it would fit but it won't. Rather i can fit it, but i can't fit other things I done some research on the heater cores on the size, but i can seems to find a real small one. Someone did use 78 toyoda pick up heater core, which was 5.5X5.5x2. All the auto store aroudn where i live don't seem to have one. At least it's not the one i saw on the web. Anyway, if someone can give me some suggestion on finding a small core would be much appreciated. I check out the entire watercooling section from the overclockers.com, but didn't find a small one. boo hoo...it's going to take lot longer to build my box...

To get a small core you're gonna need one for imports, don't expect em to be cheap here are a few to get ya looking in right direction:
2-563 72-80 Chevy Truck LUV TRUCK 5.625x4.75x2

2-688 86-95 Suzuki SAMURAI 5.125x5.625x1.25

2-588 74 Toyota CORONA 5.25x5.5x2

2-646 89-97 Geo TRACKER 5.5x5.75x1.25

First one has 5/8 lines next 3 have 1/2. Once you gt to checking prices on these, you might consider using a BIX or similar unless you are able to find these used from a salvage yard.

peace.
