Radiator is excellent. The quality of the reproduction thermo quail is the problem. It leaks only at 50+mph but I drive at those speeds. Many people have reported the same problem and there are solutions but I had enough. My car has a good paint job so I don't want to risk anti-freeze spray from the quail destroying it.
