Are you getting puffs of black smoke from the exhaust with the rough idle?
Perhaps during your IC/radiator install(...mainly IC elbow area)...you accidentally pulled off the MAP sensor hose. So check your MAP sensor...comes off fairly easily if not securely tight or zip-tied...definitely roughens your idle as if car is chokin'. Also, what type of ECU you running now that you have a new IC?
