    Probably Nissen because BEHR (OEM) is aluminum and plastic.

    Go for Nissen radiator.

      The Behr radiator I just received was not aluminum, it was a copper aluminum mix. Also the tranny and oil cooler inlets looked very constricting to me. It concerned me enough that I'm currently waiting for my all aluminum Nissen radiator from radiator.com. From what I understand the Nissen radiator is the OEM radiator.

          John,
          Yes the OEM is aluminum with plastic tanks on either end. Both the Behr and Nissen radiator have the plastic tanks on either end. I too looked for an all metal radiator, but never found one.
