Waking the list from the nearly dead...

I will hopefully get some wrenching time over the holidays, and will 
likely swap the radiator out of the coupe into our 90, which is 
currently running with a vintage 1982 Urq radiator with a slow leak.

My replacement radiator goals are :
    * better than stock cooling (plan to track the car, and it will 
be running a chipped 20v turbo)
    * removal of the secondary radiator (room for more IC)
    * maintaining the AC system (which means retaining the condenser)
I did manage to get one of the "naked" 034/Ron Davis radiators to 
work for me with my old CQ, but I want to avoid all the fabrication 
that went into that.  (customer SS clips for the side and front 
mounts, lower mounts from a Ford Bronco, custom mid mounts to retain 
the condenser...not to mention obtaining stock radiator mounting 
clips/captive nuts that were ground to fit the radiator.)

So, other than the $$ Dialynx or the 034

radiator, does anyone have other ideas?

Thanks...

Happy and safe Holidays to all...

I'll give the floor back to the crickets...
