So far it did but we aren't in the heat of summer yet which is when we were having problems with it. I ended up getting an aluminum 3 core. It actually works well enough that with a 160 degree t-stat it has problems getting up to temp in colder weather.

That sounds just like mine now I have a 160 t-stat also and it doesn't come anywhere close to overheating in the summer.

LOL!  I went to Florence and test drove that Toyota, with your dad, back when he bought it for you.  Bet he never imagined you would end up doing all of that to it!
