Has any one had any luck with a certain type?

I found this company RadiatorUS, that has a really good price on this Aluminum Radiator ( http://www.radiatorsus.com/servlet/t...NEW-ALL/Detail )

My car is a '75 Cutlass Supreme

Thanks

It's probably way too late, but I had my original re-cored. It cost me a bit more, but it kept the original tanks, added a new brass/copper core, and fits perfectly.

I want to go with Aluminum because it will cool better, and be lighter

Yeah... my interest was in keeping the car as original as possible. I was concerned about fitment as well. Good luck.

Advanced Auto sells Ready Radiators for most vehicles and IMO they are better
then Spectra. Plus you get 15-20% off routinely on their website. So this $99
Aluminum radiator with warranty will cost you $85 plus tax to pick up at your
local store. All aluminum with plastic tanks. Don't be afraid of the plastic tanks.

I compared a Spectra side by side with a Ready Radiator for the same vehicle and
I prefer the Ready Rad. Don't buy from a no name brand company with no real
history. You don't need a Griffin or BeCool unless you're making gobs of horsepower.

Plus buying local you have an easy return if it's defective.

The aluminum radiators at Borchardt speed machine were $300 , maybe there is no plastic , for a 455
