Posted: 04 Mar 2005 14:00I do beleive that they are, but I'm no expert on A/C components.

One for 70-71 and another for 72-74.
So I would say no, a 73 will not fit a 70.

If it is the heater core you are thinking of, then the answer is YES.
1970-1974 e-bodies used the same part number: 3441180. (Paul Herd and Year One catalog)

You can see the two units side by side.
