My radiator cracked the other day and my engine temp. shot to the ceiling. I parked it immediately and shut the car off and had it towed home. I don't think there is severe engine damage but the radiator damage is catastrophic. What's the best place to buy a new one for a 95 GT convertible? Also, it was the very top part where the hoses connect that broke. is this individually replaceable?

If you turned it off right after it happened you'll be fine, the radiator blowing depressurized the system causing the perceived temperature spike.
Used to there were radiator repair shops that'd could replace the tank, but I haven't seen one in awhile. Though in more urban areas you might have better luck. I'd grab the Koyo replacement off Amazon or eBay if it were me. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed
