Are you nuts? Why not just buy a PWR rad for half that?

The plastic rad tanks cracking is becoming a common problem as the cars age. Solution: ermmm...not really anything economical that gaurantees success. PWR aluminum rads won't crack and do work much better (especially for trans cooling if you don't have an auxiliary cooler), but they're much more expensive.
