Which Evaporator??? 850

I've put it off as long as possible and now it's time to replace my evaporator. I'm trying to figure out which one I should buy. I wanted a copper core one, which we (the shop I was working with) did find, but when he tried to put it in one of their service/loaner 850s it didn't fit right. Supposedly it had a bar along the backside that didn't allow for the water to drain properly past the evaporator. Now I'm back to trying to find one that will hopefully have a longer life. I looked on a couple of sites and found that most sites sold two evaporators, the OEM one and one sold by Air Products Group (APG). The APG one appears to be aluminum, so I don't know if it'd be any better then the OEM one. Does anyone have any experience with the APG one? Or does anyone have any other suggestions for me of what to try to attempt to make the evap last longer (I already have the pollen filter)?

Thanks in advance
PS - Sorry for bringing up the dreaded evap topic early this year.
