Default radiator

hey guys. i have a 1997 prelude and have a few questions. a couple of days ago i noticed my car is heating up really fast... but i ignored it, and maybe i need to put more coolant. but yesterday i noticed that something was smoking under my hood. so i pulled over and looked. my radiator was blowing out air and there was a crack along the top of the radiator.
so my question is... should i get a new rad, or should i put something other the crack like a seal or what not..
^ that might be stupid but i just need to know LOL

thanks guys

Yes, it sounds like you're past the point of repairing. Replace it
