    The heater core is behind the dash but the heater valve is an electrically controlled motor (located next to the brake servo). Autozone have some popular workshop manuals for free on line once you register (for free) on their website http://bit.ly/autozone_repair_info.
    and get an online repair manual subscription.

    if you had heat before the radiator was replaced and don't have it now, there is air in the system, period.

    When you bleed the system the heater has to be set to HIGH, and the fan at LOW speed.
