i heard from someone that if you run the heat, it cools the engine (from taking the heat right from it). my friend told me that it is bs, but it sounds logical to me. Whats the word?

that's the first thing me and my friends have always done when in a car that could overheat, you unroll your windows on the highway and turn the heater on full blast, it's just another form of a heat exchanger by using your fan in the passenger compartment this way, basically you have two radiators running now instead of storing that heat in the heater core

True. Heater Core gets heat from coolant circulating from engine/bypassed at water neck. Same coolant runs through radiator. Therefore blowing off hot air from heater core takes a load off engine cooling system. Effective too.
