typ44 - who carries the radiator w/ the metal side/hose necks?

[S Dewitt]

OEM radiators still have the plastic end tanks. What people are trying to
tell say is that age causes the plastic to crack. Typically 10+ years. If
you use a metal radiator you loose a significant amount of cooling, plus
quality is poor.
