aluminum radiator

[Sweet_Johnny]

I wish I saw your post prior to purchasing the aluminum radiator from ebay. I ended up purchasing the $150 one in my first post and I could have saved some money with one of your choices which are closer to $100 and may be better built. I don't know how your sellers did not show up at the top of the ebay search; they don't allow me to search by more popular seller like Amazon and the algorithm promotes the sellers with little to no sales. I bought this:

The others you mentioned look similar to each other and priced better, and likely have better customer service:

It was within $50 of my recommendation, and many of them are made by the same people so it could be the same.

Yeah the design looks similar.

I bought what was supposed to be an OEM like V8 radiator from Ebay and the core is 5/8" thick which seems extremely thin compared to factory, and was a misrepresentation of the seller's ad. I requested a refund and he has been turning me in circles. Time to make a claim with ebay.

Yeah, send that sucker back! I've not had issues with the plastic tanks but an all aluminum unit would be better.
