Heatercores don't really come barbed, you have to cut the existing pipes down and jbweld/solder the hose barbs you intend attach. You can plug the existing hole and make new ones on the back side of the tanks as well.

Also, you might be able to find some forum members who might be selling their old HCs or services.

sort of

The fittings that come on chevette heatercores have a sinble barb on each. the smaller fitting is 1/2"od, and the larger one is 5/8"i think. You can stretch some 1/2"id tubing over them pretty easily, without soldering, or jbwelding. It is alot easier, then just add a hose clam and it will not come off!
