$250 is a screamin deal. I would have paid $500 halfway through taking the dash apart..
Worst job on a Mustang in my opinion.

I believe the steps are the same. I had a gentleman call a while ago asking about one and by the time I had done the research to find out the steps are the same I lost his number ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

For any car equipped w/ AC, you only want to do this supremely extensive job once. Therefore it is imperative, actually mandatory, that you install an OEM or other high quality core. Believe me, if you love your 5.0, you don't want to do it wrong here. It is quite an expensive job, however the $250 offer is quite a steal.

If you are worried about price, check this out: Late Model Restoration Supply out of Hewitt, TX claims to offer a 79-93 "heavy duty" core that is better than the OEM, and it doesn't require the heater input hose flow restrictor that reduces the destructive high pressure to the core when you are heavy on the throttle. I talked to a tech and that is what he said. Cost is 29.95. GOTO www.50resto.com or call @
1-866-50-resto.

If you want to send me the full amount in advance, plus $100 for travel/time I'll do it. I'm assuming you live near Pleasanton (925)?
