Great price, but what's the quality like?  A Chinese-made radiator with a
no-name fan.  No CFM rating on the fan and it looks like it mounts to the
radiator with nylon strapping through the fins.  The teeth on the strapping
can actually saw through the aluminum when these fans vibrate.  I paid over
$500 for my custom Wizard radiator with an aluminum shroud to which I could
bolt my fan.  Not cheap, but it really cools my V8 and I'm assured of the
quality.

Cheers,
Rick Neville

I have a wizard radiator on both the 100 and BugEye. Both fit well However, the electric fan will not fit on the 100. 
 Not enough room in front or behind.

They are both performing well but are pricy as you mentioned.  
I have kept the rebuilt 100 radiator just in case someone wants to go back to stock in the future.
