I need to replace the rad on my wife's 1989 740. FCP Groton has several models, I have several questions.

Offered are two Nissans models, one a three row heavy duty all metal for $175, and the other a two row plastic for $165. My preference is for the all metal, but my question is, is it truly all metal, including the hose nipples? I remember throwing away an otherwise servicable Jetta radiatior because the plastic bypass hose nipple broke.


Second, FCP also offers an MTC 3 row all metal for $135.00. What's the diff between that and the Nissans? (I Know, other than the 40 bucks) Anyone have any experience with these, good or bad, and any advice on other alternatives?

Thanks, and Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Seasons Greetings, or whatever to all.
