What kind of aluminum radiator did you go with? I plan on getting one here soon and have been looking around on ebay and see 30 bucks to a few hundred. Only one I have personally seen is Godspeed, friend has one.

CXRacing on eBay. It's actually pretty nice, it's got good construction and some really clean welds.

I bought the CXRacing radiator with slim fan...
However, I regret not getting the CXRacing radiator with slim fan and slim fan shroud, because mounting the slim fan securely is kinda a major pain in the ***... the zip tie things they supply you with SUCK.

Stock fan works too though.

Here's the one I SHOULD have gotten.

hell just make your own plate like that. simple piece of aluminum with 4 tabs on it with a cutout for the fan assembly and some screws to hold the fan to it..... you dont even need a welder. just a drill and some rivets will work great.

You'll need one for a B-series. Hose diameter is different so the inlets and outlets are different.
