Need a new radiator for my TBI 350 Jeep. eBay has them for extremely reasonable prices. Anyone have experience or a good recommendation ?

Since they're probably similar, I have nothing but good things to say about those Summit aluminum radiators.

I second the Summit unless you can find a used Griffin on ebay.

What about Speedway? I don't have any experience with them, but they sure are reasonable.

I had Jakes radiator braze new ports onto my stock brass radiator. I've not even once gotten close to over heating it.
Jake is very very reasonable and fast. like 1 day fast.
Aluminum is the buzzword and you can make them lighter... blah blah blah,
but brass has better heat transfer

Aluminum is a better heat conductor than brass is. Copper is better than AL, but I'm not sure which parts of a copper/brass radiator are actually copper.
Ron Davis radiators, it doesn't get much better than that. I have two and the craftsmanship is unmatched. You will pay for it though. http://www.rondavisradiators.com/

Did i say brass? Geeze. I meant copper
UNSTUCK
But stuck more often.
With a small block, you can run a three core stock radiator all day long, even without a fan shroud. If you are going to buy a nicer one I would go with Summit cheapies. Now if you had an LS motor, which runs way hotter, then I would say spend the money on a Ron Davis or equivalent.
