10 yrs ago I swapped in a Griffen Aluminum radiator. Six years later that radiator leaked where the core is fastened to the side tanks. Griffen epoxies the core to the side tanks. So I replaced it with another Griffen. Now, another 4 yrs later, the same leak where the core fastens to the tank just to the inside of the inlet hose. It is not repairable and has to be replaced. Has anyone else experienced this kind of failure with their Griffen? There is another vendor supplying aluminum radiators through eBay. I contacted them and they aluminum weld the core to the tanks. See this:

Anyone had experience with this vendor?
