Oh, yea of little faith. You will need to
burp the engine a couple/three times to get all the air out of the
cores. But, by all means if your welding skills with very thin wall and
brazed (lower melting temp than aluminum) aluminum cores are up to the task
then bleeds will eliminate the need to do the burping runs. Good luck
{:>).

Ha! I laugh at thin, brazed aluminum cores,
hahaha! I managed to weld 10 fittings on 5 cores with no problems
at all, so I'll probably add the bleed fittings to make filling
easier.

Rusty (unfortunately .035" stainless butt welds are
laughing at me)
Great, then
I know where to send my next cores (if ever) to have the fittings welded
on. I went through 8 cores and three welders before I ended up with two
good cores.
