Default Car Parts for WC
I know you can use a heatercore as a rad in a loop (which I'll do if I go wc), but any other parts you can get from a car in the junk yard? Like a pump?

I wouldn't recommend it. There are specific properties that Water cooling parts have that car parts/refrigerator/aquarium pieces just don't possess

heatercore? very yes

i use two and have had no leaks.
it's just a pain getting the barbs installed and making sure it doesn't have a leak since the metal and fins arent protected like in the PC-specific radiators.

I know you can use a HC, I was wondering about other, cheaper alternatives to wc parts.

I've always wanted to see someone use a full size car radiator to cool their computer. That would be 1337!
