Cleaning Radiator/?s

1.new clean engine going in. what can I use to clean the rust out of the radiator? this is a fairly new core, I dont want to take the tanks off and there is no sonic type cleaners close.
2. assume I get the rad. clean, what can I put in the water to keep the rust under control and still be legal at the strip?
3. what can I use to stop the aluminum corrosion [combo of iron/alum]?
4. what kind of bottle water is best [mine is so hard it will stand up!]

any help/ideas?
thanks Rod in AZ
