Question My turn-- heater core blew

Well, It's my turn to do the old heater core replacement. It "blew" on the way to church this morning. Actually, it's not too bad. I smelled it right away and was able to stuf a couple of rags under the dash. I raided the restroom for paper towels for the ride home. Luckily, I didn't really get the pad wet and the carpet isn't soaked. I cleaned up any minor amounts of antifreeze from the carpet so Sandy doesn't lick it up or anything.

So, my question is: does anyone have a preferred brand of heater core. I don't want to just go cheap here for the sake of saving a couple of bucks. I want something that'll last so I don't have to do this again for a long time. Thanks!


P.S. Interestingly enough, I see that I can get the GM unit cheaper than I can the NAPA one. Hmmm....
