Default radiator...which to get?

alright, since i'm suspecting that my oem radiator gave up on me. I'm in the market for a replacement. I'm leaning towards c&r since it comes w/ slim fan and affordable price. Does anybody here use c&r rads? anyproblem w/ it? i'm thinking about getting the half-size rad (to get more room for turbo) and which one should i get? tia

im using a c&r radiator but the problem is that if you use a c&r make sure to use there caps cause i lost my radiator cap and the freon evaporated

The C&R uses a regular stant style cap which can be bought anywhere.. it the same style cap that PWR, fluidyne, and everyother company uses...

how did freon evaporate from the radiator?

I use C&R also half size with the spal fan.
I have never had the problem of freon leaking out of my Rad but I am always careful when I fill it b/c it is so cold
