Default What radiator to get

The time has come for wrenchin' on the car again, and I'm in the market for a nice aluminum radiator. I'm looking for some opinions on what to get. I think pro and a few others got an ebay unit that was pretty good.

So.. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm also looking for a lincoln electric fan setup and controller. If you have any leads I'd be interested.

i have a summit aluminum dual row rad. it was 250 shipped and if memory serves me right its on sale right now for like 200 or something. it will be more than enough rad for you. its cheaper than any other alum. rad you find out there and kools just as well. you dont need anything bigger or any fluidyn brand name stuff.

I have a northern radiator, they are kinda high though. I think the summit will be fine like stated above.
