I read about someone on one of the DeTomaso forums who pushed smaller diameter plastic PEX tubing (if I recall correctly) through the existing heater tubes. They stated you don't need that much volume flowing through the heater core for it to be effective. I don't know where the original post is, but thought it sounded like a viable option for rotted out heater tubes.
