9 August 2017 - heater box

I received the heater core today.  It looks exactly like the one that I removed from the heater box.

I did a minimal pressure check on the heater core.  I filled a sink deep enough to submerge the heater core but not the inlet/outlet points.  I then put ~10 psi air pressure on the heater core while it was submerged.  I looked for air bubbles and after about 10 minutes, didn't see any and decided(hoped) the heater core was good.

I did a little more assembling of the heater box components.  I installed the two door mechanisms and installed the remaining seals.

I thought I would let those seals dry and then put the heater box back together tomorrow.
