Default Radiator

I have a crack in my radiator and need to purchase a new one ASAP. Any tips/suggestions about the best aftermarket radiator and the best place to buy from? Thanks

Found this but it's a bit more expensive than I thought it'd be.

A little cheaper. I bought one by summit for my 84, but I don't see that one for a 4th gen.

An LT1 Radiater is a little bigger than ours (1") I think but I got a Howe Racing Enterprises dual 1" core shipped for about $575 and love it.It's a work of art!!!! Other than cutting the top hose to keep it off the PS pulley it was a direct fit. Beautiful welds and a top quality piece. At some point I am gonna change the rubber piece on the bottom it mounts on to get a better fit but any bigger aftermarket will have this issue. Howe is a proven company and is awewsome!! Do 160*/170* T-stat switch and a fan tune too if you are in a hot climate.
