FB aftermarket radiator
hey can anyone point me in the right direction for a aftermarket radiator?
I did a search and found a few sites, but none of them actually showed the FB radiator?
BTW this is for a 83 GSL

I got an aftermarket radiator from auto parts wholesale or something like that
I did a google search until found one - only problem is they are not an exact fit
I had to cut a little in order to get it in - several hours later and about 150.00
later its in and does not leak - they are (NLA) trhrough Mazda

Ditto what aussiesmg said.
I just got mine done about two weeks ago. Brought it to the local radiator rebuild place and told them to squeeze the best damn core they could into it. They blasted it down to the brass and rebuilt it and it cost me $240 CDN. So a little under $200USD.
I'm really happy with it. Just took an 8hr trip south into NY and back (8hr each way) and it performed beautifully. Best part, looks and fits stock.
