Hi j,
Did you do a search?
At least a couple of people reported they weren't pleased with the radiator they received.
Low Prices.

Alan

Another vote for Champion. The others were let's say a little hard to justify the price. I'm sure the quality may be better but, sometimes you take what you can afford
