Exclamation Radiator leaking

Ok well found out my radiator is leaking from the upper gasket where the plastic tank meets the aluminum radiator, so i need a new one. I dont really want to go with plastic again, i wanted an all aluminum. Problem im having is i cant find any for our car, my question is would a radiator from a 2.0 lancer es, or oz fit? I know it may be a dumb question but i have to get this ordered tonight so i get a new one in asap.

Someone in my family jumped the gun and order one for me without consulting, needless to say it dosent fit, now im gonna take my time and find the right one, i found a few for the evo 8 that look the same, they are 2 row so i assume they will be thicker, but my concern is if the tank size is the same, and will the pins that hold it in be the same. Id rather not have to do any customization to get it to work, if itll drop in then thats the route im going to take

yea it will fit. the only thing i did was make a bracket for one of the fans. the bolts on top were off just a little bit. i also had to use a grinder to grind away a little bit of the metal on the other fan so it didnt hit the alternator. ill take pics tomorrow. it was one from ebay but it works perfect and everything else lined up.
