napa alum radiators

Are they any good? Is the cooling effect anything like the be cool ones? Or is it just like stock.

Speaking from experience, I haven't had any problem with mine. I had one of those POS Be-Cool's that didn't last for beans and went back to a stock type radiator (pretty much stock engine). The kind I got was a Modine. I have the same year and engine as you...

My question is, are there any improvements over stock? Or is it just like the original?

I got a modine from advance auto parts. my gauge shows i'm running cooler. My laptop says I run, while driving, no warmer than 188 (190 stat).
Of course I also removed the ac radiator thing.
