Opinions on radiator?

I found these radiators for my 51' flathead V8 on eBay and wanted a 2nd opinion. I'm not planning to use the fans, but fig they'd be nice to have around.

Open to other suggestions as well

I cant see your links but I have used the champion aluminum radiators off ebay, I get the 3 row versions and they work fine. Good price and if what I read is correct they are US made. I already bought one for my 51 F1 project, sitting in the box ready to go.

rad

i got mine('51) at LMC for something like $230.. 3 core copper.. i have used champion on another car in past and did call them to see it they had one, but it would have been a month wait at that time. i like the champion, but i don't have any problems with lmc rad either.
