Be Cool or DeWitts?

My stock rad started leaking and I didn't know it until the temp pegged yesterday. Data log showed it got up to 271'f- yikes! So far it doesn't seem to have hurt anything but I'm not taking another chance with my Dart 414.

Which brings me to my question. Which radiator is the best, Be Cool 60015 or the DeWitt 1139006M? They are about the same cost from Summit and have the same basic specs- 2x1 core aluminum "direct fit" lol.

I like the looks of the DeWitt better but Be Cool has the brand name and probably more in service. If anyone has experience with either radiator please share. I'm trying to get it ordered today if possible.

Even though I expect some modification I'd like to know how much modification is necessary. I'm running the "LS" dual fans so thickness does come into play here. If it get's too thick the lower/drivers side fan will start to get into the steering box.
