<<I am going through the same research.  The all metal Modine unit is
available from radiator express for under $180.

I am down between this one and the OEM AKG unit... it lasted all of this
time... it cannot be all that bad.>>

I did this search over two years ago and ended up calling Modine directly. 
They told me they no longer make a radiator for the type 44 with the metal
end tanks.  The current one is a plastic tanked model made in Brazil.  I
posted about it at the time and its in the archives somewhere.

As an aside, when I talked to one of the online vendors they swore up and
down the Modine was a metal end tanked model, was pretty pissed when I
opened it up and found plastic end tanks.  But by that time I was tired of
fighting with vendors...
