DO NOT flush the whole system at once.

Disconnect all hoses and REVERSE flush independently.

Heater core by itslef.

Radiator by it self.

Block by itself.

Go to NAPA and some of their radiator flush. It's pretty strong stuff.

I haven't been able to flush anything yet. I'm pretty busy at work and live in the barracks right now.

As far as I can tell though everything is working good. No leaks, temp is good. As soon as I get some time I'm gonna flush it.

Thanks everyone for the help.
