Re: Radiator choice

Well you could make a little bit of cooling gain with a large 2 row aluminum radiator. But the next step looks like custom core support time. Every row added to a radiator is less effective than the one in front of it. That's why you don't see radiators with more than four rows.
If I was going down the custom core support road I would go with a 2 row 3 pass radiator aluminum radiator. Hopefully out of a late model vehicle. You loose water volume but gain cooling in that the water passes the fans three times.
Here is a link to larger cooling fans.

And a second link on radiators you may not have seen.

P.S. The engine sounds fun.
