So, I have a hairline crack on my radiator, just to the left of the cap on top. Is this fixable? Was steaming like crazy this morning and found it to be cracked... can I fiberglass it? Or do I need a new radiator... how much is the whole thing?

You can't patch it. Its under too much pressure and heat to be fixed with some type of patch.
Look up radiators on ebay. You can get a cheap oem replacement, or upgrade to a full aluminum depending on your budget. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
