I was reading instructables today and saw a piece about making a ghetto AC from a Car Heat Core, pumping the Ice cold water thru it to a fan where it would pull all the air through the manifolds and creating a nice cold air.
I'm not much of a car guy, so I don't know if they are soldered or rather just one long piece of tubing.
If it is all one piece of copper or aluminum, I imagine there would be no lead solder the wort could come in contact with. If so, a new heat core might be neat to mess with since they're only about $27.
Figured I'd ask here in case anyone knew.
