Pretty much the same deal for me. I went to a large local auto parts store, and asked for a new radiator for a 1985 5.0 Mustang, and I got a nice light, aluminum radiator with plastic tanks, thats a direct replacement for the old brass rad. It seems like most replacement rads are made that way nowadays.

When I built my Nova I bought a replacement from Advance, noticed it was aluminum so wrote NHRA tech and asked since aluminum was not legal at the time. Answer was to wait, and soon after they made aluminum legal. It fit perfect and was inexpensive.
