This reminds me of the time I was working on big  GMC Dumpster truck the type 
that picks up 20 ft. cans and has lots of hydraulics  on it. I took the 
radiator out and sent it down the rad. shop to be repaired.  When I got back a few 
days later I installed it and filled it up with water then  started the engine 
and backed it out on to the curtain in front of the shop  to idle and watch 
for leaks. After a short while I heard an awful squealing like  a pig being 
butchered and the engine came to a dead stop. Locked tight.   This radiator had 
two cooling systems in the bottom for engine oil and tranny  oil.  The clown 
that repaired the radiator had sandblasted it. BUMMER It  took out both the 
engine and the tranny a not so small cost as they were both  large truck type. 
That guy retired quite soon after that, I wonder  why.
