Got an estimate of $300- $400 to re- core my stock radiator.
A new aluminum radiator is not that much more money.
I'm not concerned about keeping the " stock look"
Any brand / manufacturer of aluminum radiators any better than the rest.?
Car is a mild build slant 6.
Your thoughts.
 
Personally I would recore the OEM radiator, it is a slant! Anyone an order a new aftermarket aluminum rad. but the original one is right and hey, they work.
 
I love the look of the originals also.

Two of my cars had aftermarket radiators in them when I got them, first things I replaced.

Originals work fine. :)
 
I went with an aluminum radiator. The top tank of my original had multiple cracks in the brass. Each repair just brought out another problem.
 
I removed a few posts here. If you guys want to buy/sell, the op either needs to start a wanted thread for a radiator or you guys need to deal behind the scenes through personal messages. Thanks

I am the op.
I was not specifically looking to buy a radiator.
Only looking for suggestions on route to take.
I have been dealing with another member through pm.
Thanks
