Anyone using a Camaro/ GTA aluminum radiator in their cars?

Hey, my radiator in my car sprung a leak today, leaked out about half the coolant on the school parking lot, over a 8 hour period. just a steady drip drip drip. it runs really cool, has a recored 3 row copper radiator. but it wouldnt run cool when i drove home, would pass 200, then come back down to 190, then go to 210, i was freakin out. it never passes 170 anymore. so, i filled it up, back to 170. i would like to hear some opinions on the tuned port 305 and 350 aluminum 2 row radiators found in trans am GTAs and camaro Z28s of the late 80s early 90s. these are really nice, have 2 1 inch rows or maybe 3/4 inch rows. ive heard they are a direct bolt in except for the oil cooler which i dont have anyways. will this cool as good if not better than what i already have? looks more efficent, and i want it for the light weight as well. thanks for your replys

it should cool it with no problem..im getting ready to put one in my car for wieght purposes.

you can run a smaller alum radiator than copper because they cool alot better

K, thanks red. i actually think the cooling tubes have about the same if not more flow area. the 3 row in my car has like, 3 1/4 inch rows or somethin, this 2 row has 2 1/2 or 3/4 inch rows. looks like it will be equivalant, and it has no corrosion like my copper one did either. let me know how yours works out. weight savings is the reason i dont want to fix mine also : )
