Radiator and thermostat question...

I've got a hole in my stock radiator and I've already pulled it out of the car, since everything's closed tonight, I was wondering what's a decent price on fixing it, prices for a rebuilt, prices for a 3 or 4 core rad and what does GM charge for a new one. I'll look for a part number on it in a min or two but if anybody knows it off hand I'd appreciate it.

Also, as I've got an L03, I pulled the thermostat while I was at it and again started toying around with the idea of putting in a 160* or 180* stat. It was one of the first things I was planning on doing to my car when I got it two years ago but I couldn't get a straight answer whether it screws up the computer causing the car to run worse instead of better. Any input? I'm not going to lower the temp if I have to get a chip or anything, thats simply not worth it.

Nevermind about the stat question. I just read the FAQ on it.
