Has anyone ever documented with photos and text a how to replace the blower and heater core? If not this may be a good time.

Hey, getting closer to doing the core/blower on 5-speed. Decided to not re-brush newish used one(putting that in Lago) and gonna go new Bosch. Best I found was GermanAutoParts.com for $150(Bosch ones are getting harder to find).....Went thru all the sites I have bookmarked over the years. Wondering if anyone's got a source I'm missing. If it were easy to replace, I'd go with the $28 ones, but have my sights set on the Bosch. Saw a Hella/Behr one for $80, but just relooked and it was in Latvia. Have a heated garage to use till the house gets listed for sale(not any time soon, but want to get the beast back on the road).
On a totally different note was planning on also installing the basically unused Jorgen rebuilt rack that came off I believe Karl Middlebrooks Titan Grey car that I parted many years ago. Just realized that the 5-speed has the Servotronic rack(this is not, but it is shiny/fresh). Lago also needs a rack(non servo), so just asking if anyone has an opinion on putting the non-servo rack in the 5-speed? I actually think the non-servo feels tighter. Plan on keeping 5-speed forever/may let Lago go at some point, but with these cars, you really need 2 to have one driving. Ha. Right Ed? Any comments appreciated....Sincerely, Tom
