Silver solder does work in a radiator (or heater core) if it's a small leak but it's a good idea to fix the leak instead. Some folks will dump in too much silver solder and it can plug up things you don't want plugged up.

A tight joint is paramount. A tight joint flowed with good silver solder, is very strong. I have built bandsaw blades for years, and will last as well or better than resistance welded blades. Have to use a cleaned and fluxed joint, with proper amount of heat, turn it red evenly with just enough heat to make it flow.
