Well after modding my heatercore so it'll fit in my case I've hooked up pump/T/core for leak testing. Its been running for about 8hrs now with no leaks. This is all good except I notice that the core is warm to the touch now. Its almost as warm as the pump. The pump I'm using is a the ViaAqua1300, but that's not the point. I'd read articles or threads explaining how the pumps will put heat in the water regardless of it being in-line or submerged. The articles were a bit over my head usually but i gotta say it seems the guys knew what they were talking about (not that I doubted them 8p~). I'm actually not suprised it happens, just suprised at the amount. The thing is really warm. Well just wanted to share my observation, wish I had a way to measure the water temps and the pump. BTW the water was ice cold outta the tap this time of year.
