It looks like there are six still for sale on ebay for $233.00. By entering the code 'CMOTORS316', you get $20.00 off! Now's a good time to get one if you need it!

Here are the links:

you will need a new OTTER switch when you install this type of rad. I have found the perfect switch.....IntermotorTS428...

It looks like it is on at 85C and off at 80C.  This fine for a switch located in the output of the rad (upper), not in the input (lower).
