Lookin for opinions.
I'll be swappin an 89 TPI305/700r4 into my 98 Sonoma, (hopefully soon...) and was lookin for different options and experiences with radiators.

Lookin at a BeCool radator but it's close to 800 bucks! (2 row auto trans style)

I used one made by Superior radiator for my 87 back in 95? when I did the swap. It was a good quality radiator and cooled good once I built a shroud for it. But it was a copper/brass "forward" mount style, (no AC truck), and this time I'm lookin more along the lines of keeping the AC and using an aluminum rad.
