Im not the only one, and they wouldnt replace it either/ less than 2yrs old. I had it welded three times where the tank meets the runners and still think it leaks. I recommend someone else!
I would also suggest a high quality electric fan that you can run while the car is off. It seems like you are using it in a drag car so it might be something where you wire it to connect to an external power source. That way you can cool the engine with the car off. Might be something to think about too.
As for a radiator, I put a Jegs in my 79 and it does an ok job (Alum, 3 core) and my dad has a Be cool in his 83 (works amazingly). Now I cant confirm or dispute others experiences but these are mine.

I have a Griffin Fox specific radiator for 15 years now. Works awesome. I also use an electric fan. Check them out. Griffin Radiators and Thermal Products
