Default C6 radiator upgrade

Need some help. I am looking for a 2 or 3 row aluminum radiator for my modified 2008 base model(auto transmission). I know Dewitts is a good one, but they are just too expensive, so I'm looking for options. I'm not the guy who puts cheap parts on an awesome car like this, but if there are options that DON'T cost $1200 dollars I'm willing to check them out. I was referred to Ali Express by a Corvette friend why has used them before, but so far I have not found anyone who can ship to an APO address since I currently live in Germany. I'm sure I can get something from ebay or amazon, but not having ordered anything like this before I don't know who to trust for a good product that fits. I have searched the parts for sale section and could not find anything like what I'm looking for, so I'm open to recommendations.

You could check Summit Racing. Even though you don’t want to pay for a DeWitts, they’re on sale there now for 10% off, and they had a few other brands as well. Summit might ship to you. They seem to know what they’re doing. I’ve ordered a number of things from them, and they never got it wrong, shipped quickly at a reasonable price (sometimes free). The first thing I ordered from them was DeWitts rad, 8 years ago. Can’t hurt to check them out.

There are some Chinese knock-off radiators on Ebay out there that some claim work decently well for the price point.

CSF. It's comparable to Dewitts and costs hundreds less. I will install one if my stock radiator ever fails.

I had to replace my Dewitts and decided to try CSF. From my experience, be sure to check inventory levels wherever you're ordering. I got strung along for months trying to get a CSF from multiple sources until I gave up.
Ended up back with a Dewitts. Their customer service was top notch and saved me some money. Best part, I knew what I was getting.
