Please post questions like this in the general area. It is not a performance question. I'm moving this for you.

I doubt that you have a steel radiator. More likely copper/brass. The OEM radiators are aluminum with plastic tanks. I highly recommend going with an OEM radiator from Acura of Augusta. If your radiator is leaking, park the car and replace the radiator. Otherwise, you might be heading toward a blown head gasket.
