Coolant flush and refill

Any bad stories about flushing a 30-year old cooling system to replace the coolant?

 

Mine looks OK but dark, so would like new. Some concern about flushing resulting in a leaking heater core, for example.

Factory suggested back in the day that Green Glycol in our 3800 engines be flushed every two years along with an additive tablet.  I stay pretty faithful in doing this, and I've not had any problems with radiator or heater core.
