I've been scouring car parts sites over here and they're charging about £35 for an Astra Heater Matrix  I'd much prefer to import a decent sized US heater core and pay the shipping.
You americans really have got it good when it comes to water cooling on the cheap!

Best thing you can do is head over to here:

Personaly ive never imported a core myself. I normaly mod old vauxhall cores.
As far as the Vauxhall cores go the corsa and nova cores are then best. they will fit in a Cheiftec dragon with only a little modding of both core and case. IIRC the only differance between the corsa and nova is the shape of the tubes which does not relly matter as you have to cut them off to fit anyway. The Astra cores are slightly bigger but you can just about squeeze them into a cheiftech (i run 2x astra cores in my current project)
Never used a cavalier core myself. What are the dimensions? it looks to me like the same size as a astra but the tanks are a bit differant.
slater..
ps. heres some pics of the Astra cores in developement.
