thanks forlks

Thanks folks for y'll input. It's a done deal and the car is running OKIE-DOKIE.
I thought Toyota made quality parts? the Raidatior is made of hard plastic and aluminum. Well at least it was cheap online...LOL IF this happens again i'm spending the extra $ and putting a pure solid all aluminum radiator.

I learned a few things for next time; No reason to drain the engine block with the small drain cock in the back, very little comes out. Another option which I found helpful is that You can fill the engine block first by putting a 3/8 tubing hose directly into the block and with a small funnel pour some coolant in just to make 100% sure the block has coolant when you start it up again.
