Well, Are they better than stock?
I just hate to see you get burned on a "Better Mousetrap".

and just for the record, the new radiator has corrected my "running hotter than I thought it should" problem. It gets up to running temp and pretty much stays there now.

I have the same rad in Great A'tuin.
Even w/ AC on it only maxed at 198 climbing a steep grade while towing my race car w/ A/C on. Outside temp was 93. It was kind of a stress test. Passed!
I recommend these larger rads to anyone!
