Radiator

My stock radiator is shot, and i need a new one, my question to you that know is: Should i go with an Aluminum or just a new stock?
The bottom 5 rows of my radiator are completely corroded and my car runs fairly hot at 215F at times.
thx
Aaron

Re: Radiator

A stock one will get the job done... But if you want to "do stuff right," I'd say just go all out and get a fancy one! And if you havent already, replace all the coolant hoses (radiator, heater hoses, oil filter housing, throttle body, etc) and get a new thermostat and radiator cap! And ya might as well flush the cooling system while the radiator is out. And get quality parts; I've heard stories of off-brand thermostats being junk.
