Best replacement radiator for my auto 4.5L 80 series?

[Tassie80]

Hi there, I was just wondering if anyone could let me know where to find a decent new radiator to order for my 80 series? I'm kind of new to this but was wondering if I'm better off getting a heavy duty type ( copper) or an aluminum/ plastic radiator?
Also I was thinking of putting a thermostat alarm in my head to monitor the temp but i'm not sure if its worth the $300 it will cost me.
Any help would be much appreciated

Hi there and welcome. It's usually a good idea to introduce yourself and having a picture says a lot at the same time to get better feedback.

Is your vehicle petrol or turbo diesel?

These factors are important.

Errm, it's a 4.5 auto 80 series? Which would make it a petrol..

Best replacement is a genuine one imo.
Worth making sure the viscous fan is working well too.

Have you had a look at Sparesbox? They seem to the guys to go to down under.
