Wol,

I've used a number of aftermarket radiators over the years in my Bricks. I come to the same conclusion as my BBers. The Volvo plastic/aluminum original equipment rads are the longest lasting and best performing. I have a Blackstone in my 86 that was in it when I bought it 20 years ago. I have a replacement Blackstone on hand for when it eventaully fails, but I'm seeing just how long this piece will continue to do the job. 195K and still no problems.
