I got a custom radiator for the GT6 from Wizard a few months ago, and it =
is really beautiful craftsmanship. I had them duplicate the dimensions =
of one I got twelve years ago from an outfit that went out of business. =
They copied it perfectly. About a 6-8 week leadtime, maybe less if you =
are getting off-the-shelf.
I will say that I=E2=80=99d had the prior one repaired a few times - =
they can be welded or sealed depending on where the damage is. The last =
time I did some serious damage to it, so it was truly irreparable.
Much, much lighter than stock, too.
