Chris,

Whoa!

This isn't like buying a pre made aluminum radiator from a speed shop for a Ford
or Camaro.  Any radiator shop can install a good brand pre made, but those do 
not
exist for Tigers from any source a standard radiator shop has.

There are, perhaps, three people who custom make aluminum radiators for a Tiger.
Each has a different conceptual approach, and some have shrouds and some don't.
The cost appears to be in the $450-$550 range, but I am not sure that includes 
the
custom shroud.

If you are REALLY serious about this, I am sure the listers will tell you their
favorite design concept and supplier.  Just don't expect it from a radiator shop
in Oahu.  A good, modern high fin density 4 row copper radiator, that fits your
stock tanks and shroud, costs about $300-$350 here.
