Ok, heres the deal. I have a 70SS with a 454 that has had the thermostat and tubes for the heater coil removed. What i need:

1) How to re-tube my heating coil (still present behind the firewall)
2) Where to get the tubes/kit
3) I think my thermostate is removed, as my engine wont run above 140 Degrees. This was a texas car, and very likely not needed down there. '

Thanks.

Yep, get yourself a new heater core and your set. If your asking how to install a heater core there are alot of threads on this subject so you could do a search. Secondly, if you have a shop manual it covered in it and you could also do an internet search and find it too.
