Flushing the 1951 Packard 288

Would it be an advantage to remove the core plugs on along the bottom of the block on the driver's side when flushing the block?
Seems this is the lowest part in the block and where most of the rust and crap would end up?

The block drain, which is next to the starter on mine, is lower than the soft plugs.

So I would drain the radiator from the petcock under it, and remove the plug in the block by the starter, then flush.
