    Id get the aluminum aftermarket if the budget would allow it.

    What if you can get a radiator that drops in and gives up up to 3x the performance?

    sir dba ang unang bibigay or lalabas ang water eh sa rad. cap...

    then sir before pa bumigay yung plastic, yung pangdikit or yung water sealant muna ang unang bibigay..

    AFAIK iisa lang naman ang gamit nilang sealant or pandikit dun....

    IMO maplastic or aluminum or copper may required min. and max. PSI din po yun...

    The "fuse" is your radiator cap and your overflow to the reservoir.

Question:  How much more will you pay?
