Hey Gang -
I was looking at my radiator today and it is the original one from 1988. I am due for a replacement. Which vendor sells the best one for our car? Is all aluminum the way to go?

All aluminum might be slightly lighter, but won't necessarily cool better, unless it has more cores.
Pretty much any vendor sells a good replacement and I've not heard anything bad about the OE style replacements.
Unless you're pushing a lot more power over stock, a stock style radiator is sufficient.

Then OE is the path for me. I will also change out all of the hoses while I am there as well.
