I know that cooling is the last thing on anybody's mind at this time of year but I have a cooling question. Does anybody know anything about the Be Cool 60018 radiator? All that I know is that it's an expensive radiator. Does anyone have experience with its cooling ability? Is it a good quality unit?

I personally think Be Cool has cornered the market on the most outrageously priced radiators.
With the dimensions of the 60018 radiator it should physically fit without issues but the lower hose is listed as 1-1/2" instead of the standard 1-3/4" and it comes with 2 x 1" tubes but it will probably do a fine job at cooling most engines that are set up correctly.
But by comparison my Griffen Radiator is approx. the same size but comes with 2 x 1.25" tubes for increased cooling capacity and has the standard 1-3/4" lower hose size and I paid less than half of what the Be Cool cost and I know it works because it cools my street driven 565BBC.
If cost is actually a factor you could probably get something on Ebay that is even less expensive just verify all the dimensions and actual core size first before purchasing.

Buying becool is like buying a dyson vacuum, does the same thing as all the rest but thru advertising they brainwash you into thinking its some how much better and worth spending more. I live in the same town as becool, they use mostly china cores and source all there parts and just put them together. I to have a Griffin and it was $267 and will cool even the biggest motor. I have 2 fans and even the hottest days the second fan has yet to run. Griffin has a website but you can buy for less at other sites. There dominator series 31.5in wide with 2- 1.25 in tubes probably what you want. You will need to make top brackets to hold it, just buy some 1/8in aluminum strips at H.D. bend them and use the original top plate bolts. They do make exact fit if that is what you want also.
