Radiators????

my 87 is running so hot that the over flow tank is blowing open. i changed the thermostat and water pump and just recently changed the anti freeze. then today when it was running super hot i grabbed the upper radiator hose to see if fluid was making it through the new thermostat, it was very hot. then i touched the top of the radiator, hot as a pistol. so i laid down and grabbed the bottom of the radiator, it was ice cold and the same was for the lower radiator hose. so i know its in the radiator somewhere. so ill have it flushed and stuff but i was wondering... is there any radiator that is better than others, i mean i drive this car to its limits and i need it to stay cool, so any info would be great, thanks

If you went so far as to change all these Cooling components than why don't you replace your Coolant Filler Cap and Radiator Cap?

Oh, and AbsoluteRadiator Is the ticket!
