Where to find radiator core material?

I need to find a source for radiator/ intercooler core material for a work related project (making custom heat exchangers for thermal testing). Anyone know of a company that sells this sort of thing?

Thanks,
Bob

Have you tried your local radiator shop? My guess is that they'd have new and used cores available.

For $20, I was able to buy a replacement heater core for an '82 S10. Depending on the surface area/volume you're after, maybe something like that would be an alternative.

Spearco sells IC cores of all kinds, as does Setrab (not cheap)

Do you have contact for spearco?? I am looking for the cores and am going to make a run of intercoolers for carrera cars. I may be able to get them locally from modine but It may be difficult and want an easy source

bell seams somewhat reasonable but it looks like IC will still cost a bunch. there has to be a direct outlet for us
