... Now it has a leaking radiator and the Behr units run around $700. ... Dreaming of an aftermarket solution that’s either cheap like a CSF radiator or an all metal radiator that is worth $700 plus.
Any ideas or creative mods to an XJ or XF radiator are welcome if anyone knows any, I am all ears. Miss driving my DAILY DRIVER XK.

Radiator tank on outlet side
It looks to be leaking between the tank and core near the outlet side, right hand side top of the radiator. Been driving short trips and loosening the overflow tank cap whenever I arrive, relaxing the pressure on the system so it doesn’t leak out so fast under pressure.
I didn’t know plastic tank radiators could be messed with. Most gas tank shops do metal radiators an gas tanks for sure.
Guess I should not complain, but I’m scraping by here lately like most of us on this planet at this point.
