Corey:

I will not be of much help to you here, but I will tell you that I COMPLETELY recognize the sound you are talking about.

Until early 2002, I owned a 1996 Chev Blazer and it made that same occassional gurgling sound from within the dash, too. If I remember correctly, it did that almost since the time the vehicle was new. Nevertheless, I always wondered if the heater core or something in the dash was going to go out, leaving me with antifreeze all over the floor!

Anyway, I drove that rig over 130,000 miles, and those fears never materialized. So, hopefully you won't have any problem either.
