Intermittent overheating 'I think'?
Ok so here goes nothing. One problem down and on to the next one. Overheating, so it's done it three times first time I replaced the radiator cap, second time the thermostat and gasket and every time re filled the radiator. This last time it happened I re filled took pics and videos that I will post at bottom. So my thinking is the radiator is shot or full of holes because it bubbles up at top. And the needle doesn't seem to move till its almost empty.
Also only leaks when running as there are no leaks where I park the car.
My question is three fold. One can you guys confirm my suspicion with what I have told you and by the pics?
Two, can it be fixed by using that stop leak stuff I see in the radiator?
Or three should I just buy and install a new radiator?
Thanks again for the help you guys always pull through.
Also I did search that's how I came to my conclusion.
Now on to pics

If you an want aftermarket radiator, you will have to get the correct one with the cooler lines that run to it. If your SC is Auto, (I presume it is), it will have these cooler lines from the transmission to the radiator. Some aftermarket one's don't have that for some reason. Koyo could be the kind you are looking for if you're just looking for a "cheap" alternative. Though, keep in mind that Koyo, Mishimoto, and Griffin are cheap, but require some customization to fit in. (Made for the Supra) Original "plug and play" radiators for these car's I heard is around $400...
Though, Koyo does have some that are "plug and play" sometimes. Check into them for a non-custom aftermarket radiator.
