Recoring may be a bit extreme but have it checked out at least. I put an
untested core in my TR8 when I had it apart. It didn't leak but it also
didn't heat. I wound up taking the whole dash apart and removing the
heater to swap it out. Don't make the same mistake.

P.S. The radiator shop said the heater core was built like a tank. Unlike
those used in modern cars these are quite robust.
