heater core issues

Is there any specific advice for V10s? Does the kit from the Autozone keep coolant flowing so the coolant in the heater core does not stay stagnant all summer. The kit looks like it is just to shut coolant when Max AC is selected. Which kit will slimply slow it down to a trickle in all modes (especially Vent)? It seems like there may be an issue of hose size (isn't there always?) between the Autozone (5/8" and the V10 (3/4") Sorry if this particular question has been answered before. Also if anyone knows a shop in the Northern Virginia area that has installed a kit, that would be helpful to me.
thanks.
