Title: Heater Boxes
Post by: buglvw (Howard) on October 08, 2010, 09:49:44 pm

OK I'm getting ready to start my first "project" on my 70 vert. I know some of u guys probably change heater boxes as often as you do your underware (that was suppose to be a compliment). Anyway my question is what type of heater boxes is best for the money. I see they have standard, painted, heavy duty, powder coated, ceramic and stainless steel. I'm thinking powder coated but what do I know I'm the newbie.

if you actually want to get heat try the ones at oeveedub.com.
or wait for the englishtown show and look for a good set of used original ones.

I've been told that used OE boxes are the way to go, but I bought a complete no name exhaust system
complete with  boxes on Samba. It bolted up with no problem & makes great heat. As far as I'm concerned me and/or the car will be long gone before the boxes rust out. IMHOO
