The issue I see with the heater core is the plastic parts that get brittle and snap. When I was under my dash diagnosing a leaking heater core I noticed some of the necks were plastic.

Ppl in warm climates have it made, looping the heater lines is definately the way to go.

OP make sure you also get some stainless worm clamps and use some actual hoses (its a little smaller than 3/8ths) the blue silicone hoses from the breather tank end up splitting from the clamps and ruin your world.
