Well my radiator gave, it has cracks in the plastic tanks, and leaks every were.
I need to buy a new one, I have a 86 iroc w/ 305 TPI, Did they come with 2 or 1 row?
What one is better, i know 2 should be there but idk in these cars as much.
Should I get a aluminum one? or stock plastic one? is the aluminum any better? and If I get aluminum should i get 1 or 2 row?

A 2-row aluminum would be the best way to go. When our stock tanks go, it always seems to be the PLASTIC tanks that blow.
I'm not sure of a aluminum 2-row, with a tranny cooler in it though, if you need one.
An aftermarket tranny cooler will probably work better anyways.

A lower temp (like 180) thermostat never hurts.
