BA Radiators

Looks like I have a leak between the core and the tank on the passenger side of my radiator. I tried to squeeze epoxy under the lip on the weekend but it hasn't fixed it

So do I buy a new radiator or can it be fixed off the car ?

Ozeparts prices on radiators are :

Genuine :

A$346.50
Radiator
Transmission: Automatic
Tank: Plastic
Core: Aluminium
No. of Row(s): 1
Thickness: 25mm
For 1800CC Only

Non genuine :

A$267.30
Radiator
Transmission: Automatic
Tank: Plastic
Core: Aluminium
No. of Row(s): 2
Thickness: 27mm
For 1800CC Only


minus 10% for member discount.

What would "number of rows" mean ?
And I wonder if this includes the oil cooler - I can't see it in their pic. Although the brass fitting on the side might be for oil ?


Is it worth getting 2nd hand - I figure that'll just break sooner than a new one. Are there other options/prices out there ?


I figure I'll replace most of the hoses and the thermostat at the same time while I'm at it.
