It states that the 160.00 ones are partial copper/aluminum, and it may have the plastic end tanks. I got an OEM koyo once, and it was about the same price. It was just a OEM radiator made by Koyo. Just get a mishimoto, lifetime warranty+similiar design>koyo.

Upon checking the part number, it is a OE radiator, not bigger or anything.

negative on the mishimoto chief, the pattern is full

i gave that radiator a good solid chance, shit sucked. LS1 which does not run hot hit 100 in 3 laps. koyo n-flow now installed, 85C tops in a 20 minute full out road race session.

It even says in the listing it's the copper model, did you not read the page at all?

Yeah, if you compare it to the n flow, the koyo is superior product, but if you're just a poser like me it's fine :)

Sorry that you were unhappy with our product. We have a few customers running our rads in LSx powered vehicles with no issues. We also just released a double-pass radiator for high HP applications.

Don't know much about ^ these guys but I run a KOYO on my SR making 400whp and have had fans burn out and not even realize it b/c the radiator was doing such a good job.

just sayin...
