If money is not a problem, grab yourself a new desert cooler radiator for a red in FC - start around the $400 from memory. Fits straight in

Short on cash but got the skills, you can cut the radiator supports and make them wider to fit a red raditor.  I measured and cut mine 3 inches extra on each side then rewelded the whole removed section (for added strength) into place to accept the red radiator.

not the prettiest but it's functional (espically with my welding skills)

There are a few who run reds on orginal radiators.  As long as the radiator is in good nick and you are running a stock red.
