What are you looking to do? You can buy a stock replacement at any auto parts store. Are you looking for a drop in aluminum such as Fuidyne or BeCool? Or, are you in to fabbing and want a generic like Northern or AFCO?

Tell us what the application is.

When you say fab, are you talking about fabbing the radiator bracket supports, modding the radiator support on the car, etc.to make a univeral radiator fit? That is what I plan on doing instead of spending 500-600 on a direct fit radiator. I believe you can buy the same type of al radiator for much less if it is a universal fit instead of a direct fit.
