Default Radiator flush

I just did a timing belt,water pump, serp,etc... Is there a bleed valve on the head somewhere or does it self bleed with the engine running and rad cap off ?

Thanks

You should be able to just fill it up, then run the car with the heater on and the radiator cap off until you get all the air out.
