The best, Cupobrazed copper radiator. It is a copper radiator that is brazed with a copper alloy instead of lead/tin solder. Copper makes a great radiator, Aluminium is very good as well. Coppers fault is that the solder that holds it all together is horrible for a radiator. It's better then no connection, but not as good as one parent metal such as copper or Aluminium.
That puts traditional copper radiator and Aluminium radiators very close to each other. At this point it's whoever makes a better raidator. A cheap copper isn't as good as a nice Aluminium. A cheap Aluminium isn't as good as a good copper. IF you have issues with dirt/mud clogging, larger fin spacing helps let the junk pass through, but that hurts cooling. But any cooling is better then no cooling if the radiator is clogged with mud and dirt.
Thicker cores and cores with tighter fin spacing (more fins per inch) make it difficult for air to travel through the core. This is where good fans come into play. CFM ratings are BS! Those numbers are done without any restance. Those high CFM electric fans choke when you put a radiator in fromnt of them. It takes a good fan to pull a vacuum to force air through the core. It's a pressure differential that must occur to move the air through a radiator. At speed, proper aerodynamics is all that is needed for that pressure differential, at low speed it takes a fan. Get the aerodynamics wrong and you will always need a fan.
