Yes heater core will cause this. Can you smell coolant too?

At least you didn't need to pop the windshield out!

I havent verified it but I heard the new Cameros have to be done that way. On this truck it really isnt as bad as it looks. In the dash shot, where its sitting in my driveway, I really took more then I needed to out of it, such as the radio, guage cluster, etc. I wont lie.....it sucks, but its not as bad as just seeing the pictures. Separating the a/c lines was the worst part. And of course, my already cracked up dash breaking into a zillion pieces.
