I need a radiator for my 89 and plan to use a 91+ because I've already converted to an open system.
Who sells good quality radiators at decent prices?

I have had a couple Go Dans and they performed pretty well for me too. However, I just replaced a GDI that started to heat up after about 3 years, so you are doing great.

If you do a search on this forum, you will see a pattern of GDI raves, followed a couple years later by GDI rants. The truth is probably somewhere in between. I haven't seen anything but raves for the CSF and Dirk at DPG Offroad. I bought one off of him for the poster's exact application and it is rock solid. Either that, or my needle is stuck a a hair below 210. LOL.

Search is your friend, my friend.
Here's one way:

Of course, if you need a new radiator anyway, just get one for a '91 up that has the filler neck/cap. The important part is getting the correct heater control valve. The rest is pretty straightforward. I actually used the old turtle for my overflow tank, but most just get an aftermarket one.

2-row all metal "heatbuster extreme" unit

not to reignite the 2-row versus 3-row radiator debate again, but a 2 row radiator will have larger passages that are less likely to get clogged
 
I ordered a three row csf from radiatorbarn for $160 shipped.Should be here tomorrow.
Thanks for the replies.
I maintain my cooling system so I'm not worried about clogging.....
