Cooling system maintenance 850 1995

Hello again, all...

I'm looking at draining the cooling system on my 850 this weekend, and was wondering what the consensus was on what type of anti-freeze to mix into the cooling system. The owner's manual, of course, recommends using Volvo OE anti-freeze, but I'm wondering what other options I have would be. I suspect some kind of silicate-free product would be the best thing to go with, considering the aluminum engine and radiator.

What's best for my engine?

Thanks,

Nate
