I don't know what a safe amount of residual contamination is from the previous perhaps incompatable coolant.
I did a flush of the heater core, block and rad separately. I find that a wet/dry shop vac does a really great job of removing residual water from these three after flushing.
As for hoses. The heater hoses between the head and firewall seem to be the most throuble prone. I will be changing mine out, but otherwise they look very good at 130000 miles. Some have had these blow with much less in miles. That suggest to me that there were some production problems or they got cheapened by competative bids after the first year or two of production. Some reports of lower hoses leaking too.
