Will this cause me any problems for when i put the heater core back in and the car back together? The hoses for it were so seized that it took alot to get them off, but in that process i ended up bending the pipes. Of i straighten them out a little will this cause any problems later on with heat?

the only problems i see are if they are kinked. if the bend isnt too bad it should be ok. becareful bending them back tho, you could cause them to snap.
