Hello Art, and thanks for your and all's informative replies. Very informative as always!!

No, the air flow is the same on each side as the other, as well as in the defrost and floor vents. I checked the heater hoses on the hcv side & passeng side going in to the heater core and they are hot.

I've checked the return heater hose in the engine compartment--it's not as hot as the intake, but it should be slightly less hot, but I'll drive it aroung to see how hot the return hose can get.

So, the original heater core is partitioned inside--fluid flows down one (right)side and up and out the other (left) to the outlet?
