Default radiator question

I ordered a radiator from atlantic british the other day because thats where i order everything else but ive been reading through the forms and alot of people are getting cheaper radiators. Did i order a good radiator or did i just spend more money than i had to for it? I ended up paying just under $300 for it shipped.

Oh well, lesson learned. im just glad i didnt order a new fan clutch from there, im gonna do some research on here to find the best one. i almost ordered it for 200 from the same place last night because i noticed the fan spins freely by hand then seems like it catches at one spot and is just slightly stiffer to spin, unless thats normal and im just looking for an excuse to buy more parts haha.

Ebay 50.00 wonder made it thru 1 tx summer without a problem. I’ve had 500.00 Drake Offroad all aluminum radiator leak within 2 weeks. You’ll know within a few heat cycles if you’re good to go or not.
