Here are a few options for you since it seems like you haven't searched yet.

1. Email this guy named Mike at MVSRX7@aol.com, I forgot which company he works for but they have been making Howe radiator (cross flow) for over 10 years. They are in fact aluminum and direct fitment, but however do require the lower hose from a GSL-SE and the oil cooler must be located in the front of the radiator. His price is $350 to my knowledge, but you should email and confirm.

2. Email this guy named Bryan from Custom Aluminum Radiators at mcculloch@alumrad.com, they have done custom radiators for years and have also done FB's before. Normally he would ask you for dimensions because people that have contacted him in the past ask for different height on their radiators. You can work off the stock size and go from there:

Number of Rows:2
Core Size:16 7/8 X 22 1/2 X 1 ¼
Top Header:1 7/8 X 22 ¾
Bottom Header:1 7/8 X 22 ¾
Inlet:1 ½

You can always get ones from places like Summit Racing, Ron Davis, PWR, etc. Or you can get one designed for an early Nissan Z which fits nicely as well, same thing goes for getting a Koyo made for an FC and doing some modifications to make it fit. Possibilities are endless, so start searching
