No major benefits at the moment. I have a small amount of coolant sneaking out of the radiator through the filler / cap. The mechanic says that it is the cap not sealing but two different caps are doing the same thing so I think it might be the radiator.

I also know the plastic endtanks on the stock radiator sometimes crack, so going to an all aluminium radiator will prevent this potential failure.

Also, with my high-comp engine build things will be running hotter than with a stock engine, so it is a bit of future-proofing as well
