The plastic tank cracked on the radiator in my 123 wagon so here is what I did for a cheaper option.

Just what you'd need with your polished valve cover, turbo, and lines!That really cost less than a stock radiator?

ya I got it from summitracing.com its a universal aluminum radiator with trans cooler. cost about $250 shipped. steel braided line I had left over from the turbo project but you could use any oil line for the cooler. The radiator hoses I just went to an auto part store and went in the back and bought the longest hose with the bends I needed and used some pipe to connect the hoses. Total cost about $300 and no more plastic tank.
