Default Radiator

I went to the drag strip yesterday and about 1/8 mile down the track the car decided to blow what I believe was a headgasket. It also blew the top off of my stock eg radiator. I'm pulling the head off on Saturday and hopefully a head gasket is all it is. My question is I'm not sure which radiator to go with. Now obviously I would love to have $300+ to spend on a PWR but I don't have the funds right now. I would like to see what you guys would recommend. Another oem radiator or something aftermarket. btw running gsr swap with drag kit on 10psi. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

If all you blew was the headgasket, get some new headstuds, get the head milled, and get a new stock radiator. Your stock radiator was not the reason your HG blew (assuming that's all that happened) something else must be wrong.

i doubt it was just the headgasket if the top of your rad blew off. I cracked a sleeve and my rad hose burst open....
