Default Heater Core for Water Cooling

What cars have good heater cores for water cooling?
I think i have heard that the 77 Pontiac is a good one, but which car? are there other better options? are they made of copper? because i will most likely be using a copper CPU block and don't want galvonic corrosion(Probably said that wrong lol...)

Also if you know a good site to buy from let me know, or if i need to go to a junk yard that will work too.

Thanks,
Justin

Depends... most newer heatercores are aluminum though due to cost and weigth.

Here's an oldie but goodie list: www.overclockers.com/tips1031

The old 77 Pontiac Cat or Bonnie nonairconditioned seemed to be the largest core available thats copper/brass, so its was a big favorite
