My radiator died need some opinions on a new one.

What would be the best radiator to get that will fit without any modifications. I have the automatic trans cooler & theres a sensor that tells me when the coolant is low. I want to keep all of this features working but will like to get an alluminum radiator. Is there a company that makes a bolt on aluminum radiator for our cars? mine is a '88 Trans Am.

I think I saw that you want to make sure the radiator you get in replacement is three rows instead of 2. I beleive the Autozone/Pep Boys OEM replacement is of this type. Not 100% sure though.
