I saw on an older post that Vista Pro Ready Aire P/N 398237 was a good replacement. I recall the vanner stating that their generic catalog photo did not match - but part delivered was good geometry.
related here is an old string:

FWIW - I had mine re-cored - that cost me $100 - replacement would have been cheaper

This is my old one, if you want it pay for shipping, leaking but maybe fixable.
I ended up using one from a truck that was close to size but needed work to fit it into the box and down through the floor.

You all are great ! Thanks for the help and the kind offers , but yesterday I received the package from rockauto . I opened it up immediately and to my surprise it was a brand new heater core ! The picture is not what they send fortunately so those looking for one just order it !

Recore is the way to go. I took mine to an great local shop and he new exactly which core would work and re-cored my ends with a new brass fin copper core for $151.90. It was worth every penny. I painted it with black radiator paint and it was like new.

I ordered the Rock Auto heater core #9010298 That Garagedoordennis has listed above. It is a perfect match for the first gen Chevy/GMC van. Thank you Dennis!
