I've changed the a/c evaporator core in both 1987 and 1988 Turbo Coupe. Now in 2014, I need to change another one I bought in Dec 2013. After I got the part out, I order one from our Rockauto parts. Well, when it arrived, it was to short and too wide. Then I checked around, Napa, Autozone and other chain parts store and the all seem to have the shorter and wider a/c evaporator core. Can we get the right size anywhere? Has someone recently changed their a/c evaporator core with that size? If modification is needed......wow...it's going to be hard. enclosed are the pictures of stock vs new part. The used part came out of my '88 Turbocoupe with automatic temperature control

To post pictures you need to put them up at a 3rd party photo hosting site like Photobucket.com or flicker. Then you put the link to the picture(s) in your post here. There is more info on doing it here: http://natomessageboard.com/ubbthreads.p...Post234870

I have a brand new, never used evaporator in the garage if you need one cheaper than usual. PM me. I bought it for my Thunderbird, and found out I didn't need it. It's still capped, and on the shelf doing nothing.
1988 Thunderbird. No details will be given or spoken of.
