Koyo, stock new ones are like what- 200 bucks? and koyo's are around 300, unless money is super tight i'd just go with the koyo.

look around in the for sale seciton and see what you can find. Wait long enough and you'll find a good enough deal. Saw a koyo go for like 200 recently.

I'm still the new guy here, but personally, I'd be extremely concerned as to how long that hole has been there, and how many times it ran low or worse, out of coolant. Why is it for sale, how much , etc. Not trying to blow your high dude, but be cautious. Check the **** out of it first, and I hope it does work out.

JUST CONCERNED PEACE THE DOG
