Nissens Radiator for 200q20v

[Kneale Brownson]

There finally is some information about availability/pricing on the Nissens
all-metal radiator for our cars.

The source is Scott Mockry of http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/  fame.   He
got one from his suppliers and checked it out si he could provide the
following info:

I took a look at the Nissens 60437 radiator, and it is indeed an all metal
version for the 20V.

Talked to my source and they indicated that the all metal radiators and
heater cores have a 5% higher warranty return rate, when compared to the
plastic/aluminum versions,  but that the Nissens brand is not singled out
as being any worse, as they carry both types of radiators/cores and there
are several brands of all metal radiators.

The Nissen rad is available for $225 plus shipping.
