Here's a link for a good step-by-step article in Super Chevy magazine. The car used in this was a 1968 Malibu, but the process is very similar for your Nova. I'm facing this same project on my '77 Nova but haven't got any pictures just yet. http://www.superchevy.com/tech/sucp_0707_remove_and_replace_leaking_heater_core/index.html One thing they failed to mention in their ad... make sure you have a 5-gallon bucket to catch the anti-freeze!
The heater fan I believe is located behind the glovebox by the firewall. Just remove the duct and unbolt the fan.
Replace water pump for an 1986 Chevy Nova?
Nothing.

change heater core with ac on 1971 nova
Drain the water from your 1972 Chevy Nova cooling system. Remove the heater core water supply hoses. Remove the heater core retaining bolts.
To replace the heater core on a 1976 Chevy Nova with a straight 6 engine, start by disconnecting the battery and draining the coolant. Remove the dashboard to access the heater box, which typically involves taking out screws and possibly the steering column. Once you can access the heater box, disconnect the hoses and remove the old heater core. Install the new heater core, reassemble the heater box and dashboard, and refill the coolant before reconnecting the battery.
Heater core is under the dash behind the glove box and the bolts are on the firewall to take it out.
How do you change the heater core on a 1978 Chevy Nova Custom with a 305 v8 engine and where is it located on the car? thanks jj
