Did the job yesterday. Took 4.5 hours with one rest (beer) break. Strightforward as long as you keep the various screws and bolts in order. seat was removed and an old throw banket used. Hardest part was reattaching the 2 heater hoses behind the strut tower. Ended up removing the strut tower brace and cruise servo to gain access to push on the hoses. Old core cracked a plastic end tank just like GM radiators do. New one is all Aluminum.
