Has anyone bought a radiator from 'discountradiators.com'? Or have you used any other source for new or rebuilt rads?

I just ordered a custom aluminum rad from Mancini Racing.  When I get it I'll take some pics.  I'm ready for my car to run cool!!!

:update:

I have installed the 22" custom radiator and a mopar performance 6 blade impeller water pump.  The car runs so much cooler now.  On my oem temp gauge, it used to rise to slightly above 3/4 within 5-7 minutes of driving and now it stays about 1/4 of the way up. :jumping: The rad that was in the car was an oem chrysler BB b-body rad and had been cleaned out by the radiator shop and pressure checked.  It just would not cool my built 340.
