Any comment/experience with cheap aluminum radiators from Ebay

Have a look at the radiator catalogue here, page 321:

Thanks.

Those OEX are an overseas made radiator too.
Price doesn't necessarily mean quality, just local supplier markup.

Where are you looking... ebay???

I bought mine through a shop.. can deal with radiator specialist and get one ordered in.

I have seen copper brass ones on ebay some time ago but have not looked for awhile.

Not just ebay, but a couple of outlets.

What's the difference in all these radiators? Whether plastic tank, copper core, alloy, they are all overseas made, and only inspected or tested here before sale. Like most things really.

As for copper or alloy, either one is not impervious to stone strikes or a wayward stick/branch out in the scrub. Would rather get a cheaper one with similar warranty, cheaper to replace or have fixed.
The coolant for the alloy radiators would be the same he is using now as he would have an alloy head anyway.
Electrolysis shouldn't happen anyway because the radiators should have insulating grommets, or plastic, where the radiator fixes into the support panel.
Even the more expensive alloy radiators (PWR, Desert cooler, etc) aren't any better than the overseas/cheap ones.
The issues they had was the tanks and cores were joined using epoxys and resins, rather than being brazed (same as copper core) which they are doing now.
The alloy one I was looking at for my TB45 was around $200 to my door with a 2 year 40000km warranty. The more expensive brands, one of which I had quoted, was around the $800 with 2 year 50000km warranty.
Even if the copper custom one is around $600-$700, I'm guessing similar warranty, you could buy 3 alloy ones and get 6 years motoring (if they were to fail at the 2 year or km interval), which in the long run would make more sense to me as it's a small outlay to get going for at least 2 years, and not have to empty the wallet.
I can't say bad things about these cheap radiators, because I've had years of good ones, an not one fault. Have had one now in a V8 for over 3 years.

@ Anaurath
As Alitis007 asked, is your standard radiator giving you trouble? Or what is the reason for wanting to change from standard?

Sorry if I seemed narky, not meant to be.
Just how I see things.

Cheers
