Any particular reason you want an aluminium radiator? In time it will leak from the core, copper core radiators do the job well, I fitted one to my XR then towed a caravan to QLD with car bra fitted in the heat and had no cooling issues.

Never had an issue with mine at all , all of a sudden it decided to leak coolant a few days ago, and has eventually let go.
The car has never been overheated, and always has had coolant etc.

They say the alloy ones work better, ive had good mileage with my one, been 6 yrs lol.
Its a good price.
