Would there be any problems using a heater core as a radiator for a water to air intercooler? There the only things with the inlet/outlet pipes coming straight out of the tanks as opposed to 90 degerees.

heater core as radiator for water to air?

Water to air intercoolers are dependant on the size of the heat exchanger.
yes it would work, would it be big enough? that you can only determine by trial and error. the bigger the core the cooler the air going into the engine is going to be which means more fuel and more power.
another good trick is to mess around with the speed of the pump. slower speeds gives the water more time to draw out the heat. perhaps if it wasn't big enough you could use 2 joined together.
