70 A/C heater box rebuild

[Barraguy]

Looking for recommendations on a A/C heater box rebuild kit for my 70 Barracuda. What have you used and have you been happy with it?
Thanks

I used their kit to do my T/A heater box. Worked out great - they absolutely have everything you will need to restore yours...

I reccomend installing a new heater core; Just be sure to test the new heater core for leaks prior to installation. You do not want to have to pull it all apart.

Good suggestion, I have had new heater cores leak!

I got two new heater cores from two different places for mine and neither of them fit like they should have. The original did not leak so I put it back in. I used the kit listed above and in all I have about 16 hours in that one box. I had three cracks I had to patch up on mine. Take your time with it and don't rush it. Also take more pictures of it than you think that you need too so that you know where everything goes back to. I didn't and from when I took it apart to when I put it together was 4 months time difference.

My only question is the resistor looking electrical item that mounts on the box, I am in need of a new one and I cannot for the life of me find one online. What is it?
