It appears that the heater core on my LT1 Trans Am needs replaced. I *think* that I just need to remove the glove box and I can remove the heater core through the opening. Is it really this easy or will I find that I need to pull the dash off the cowl like I had to do with my old 88 IROC? That was an unpleasant surprise and I guess I am trying to figure this out so I know what I will be dealing with when I start.

I am just curious about what sort of project I am getting into.

Thanks.

If it's anything like my LS1, it took me 2.5 hours. Most of that was spent getting the stupid hoses on and off at the base of the cowl because of limited room.
