Alloy ones seem to be popular. Custom/mass produced. I hvent seen anyone pay more than $250 for one yet.

I run one of the alloy core units that I sell in front of my G16B (in Sierra) without any dramas... Several others do too. It'll handle your 1.3 easily.
$230 to your door.

With a std box, I don't know how you got a p/s box in there to, that's the reason I still have a 1.3 rad, the vit's to wide..
