What size aluminum radiator to get???

Didn't quite know where to put this post, so here it is.

Hi, I've been looking at my new Regal and was considering getting an aluminum radiator and trans cooler for it.

I will most likely get the 11"x11"x1.5" stacked plate trans cooler for the th400 with trans brake. My question is what size aluminum radiator should I get. I see the custom sized ones that are $400 and up. But it looks like a universal 26"x19"x3" or a 30"x19"x3" would work just fine. Engine is a 500 hp 455. Car will hopefully run mid 10's.

What size are some of you running to keep things cool? Car will be a track only car. Should I get an electric fan with it also? Any advice/comments welcome. Thanks.
