Need a new radiator for my 87 442.

I need to replace the radiator in my 87 Cutlass 442. Its leaking from the drain plug area and it was struck by a bird causing a small leak (poor little guy). I would like to put in a good 2/3 core aluminum radiator as a replacement for the factory radiator. When I had to do this in the past on my previous Cutlasses I have never been satisfied with the fitment. My local parts store usually has a GM universal one for the car which works but I don't care for and it usually runs about $150. There is one on Gbodyparts.com (the Alradco Aluminum Gbody Radiator) and they are asking about $425 for that one which seems a bit expensive. I looked at one from Be Cool and they are also at the $450 price point which seems a bit pricey. I have also read some complaints about their fitment as well.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a good 3 core aluminum radiator for my 87 442 that actually fits well for a decent price?
Thanks!
