Try www.gmpartsdirect.com. They sell the OE unit(Delco-Harrison) for the same price as many aftermarket units and in my opinion the OE is made better.

I paid under $200 for my Griffin 2" dual core aluminum radiator. My car stays right at the thermostat temp in all conditions. The cooling capacity of this radiator is far beyond a stock unit.
