Best place for aluminum radiator for 05 V? Well the stock POS is leaking again so I am gonna go with an all aluminum replacement this time. Where can I get the best price? Looking to by ASAP. Thanks in advance.

D3 makes them for first gen V's too. Had a Ron Davis unit and I will say that thing took a possum to the bottom of it and didn't skip a beat, pricey but anything that takes a direct hit from a possum at 50mph and doesn't break is quality.

Are the stock radiators prone to premature failure? **** man it seems like everything on these cars is known to blow up! I already have to go through the ps system to hunt down problems and my trans is starting to get pretty loud. The trans only has maybe 8k on it, too!

Ya I'm gonna go with the Alradco. I just can't see spending 1000 bucks on a radiator for something I only daily drive. Maybe if I was racing with it I might consider it. This car will be completely rebuilt by the time it has 100k miles on it. Epic fail on Gms part on this one. I love the car but if I knew what I know now I would have went in a different direction.
