The best price Ive Found for a new Radiator was $90.00 at Radiatorbarn.com and alloemautoparts.com has what looks to be a double,row-heavy-duty for $100.00.

Man, I could never find the heavy duty when I was looking for a radiator. That's why I took it to the rad shop and had it recored. It worked out better because now my core is 1-7/8" thick.

We got a regular stock radiator for like 30 - 40 from discount auto parts. Works good so far ; p

About 2 weeks ago the radiator on my dad's 83 gave up after 5-6 years of good service despite the neglect it received. We paid $149 US for a CSF (Cooling Systems & Flexibles, Inc.) radiator and $47 worth of hoses, coolant, super flush, new cap, PrestoneÃ‚Â® Super Anti-Rust, and lots of patience. This radiator is different than the original style radiator; the hooks no longer fit snuggly on the top where they're supposed to fit. For some reason it seems bigger than the old one. Oh yeah, on this one instead of being able to drain the radiator by just opening the drain cock, now there is no place for the little hose on this one and have to remove the plug. No turtleneck spout on this one and nonremovable auto hoses thing. I guess I should have waited and have bought a cheaper one to avoid getting ripped-off. Oh well.
