<div dir="ltr"> I have been using a Griffin aluminum radiator for over 8 years now. Also, nicely made and good fit in my TR3. I ordered it with a shroud and puller fan. $700 total. Radiator only, $500.
<div>They will build custom. I ordered mine without the problematic or crack prone factory style extended filler neck. I fill it from an expansion tank. <br>

<div>We have good experiences with Wizard as well. They have been reliable and the quality is very good. As some people feel that oil coolers are a consumable a item, our research indicates the same may be true for aluminum radiators in cars with cast iron
blocks. There are things that can be done to help them live for years. However, they eventually need to be replaced due to the relationship of cast iron, aluminum, water and electrical current.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, I would say NEVER run any type of coolant stop leak product with an aluminum radiator, especially with an iron block. You will plug the radiator very-very quickly. Not to mention the mess the stops leaks product makes where your block and head ports
are supposed to be able to move coolant. If you are swapping fluids, find the leak and fix it correctly. <br>

<div>I am on year 5 with the last wizard that I purchased and it is still doing good. </div>

<div dir="ltr">I got a custom radiator for the GT6 from Wizard a few months ago, and it is really beautiful craftsmanship. I had them duplicate the dimensions of one I got twelve years ago from an outfit that went out of business. They copied it perfectly.
About a 6-8 week leadtime, maybe less if you are getting off-the-shelf.

<div class="">Where are folks getting (street) Al radiators nowadays? Just got the original TR6 rad back from the local radiator shop with an estimate of ~$360 to re-core, re-cap the lower end, and get rid of all the acorns the squirrels have thoughtfully stashed
in mine, so I figure it's probably cheaper to get a new Al one than press my luck with the original.
