Without getting a custom radiator built by one of the premier builders (C&S, Fliudyne). Howe Racing offers a very good product at a very reasonable price. I have ordered many with custom dimensions at an affordable price. It is a domestic product on top of that. There are alot of imported radiators out there with marginal quality. Good luck!

I believe you can get a assortment of radiator sizes from Jegs, Summit and Speedway Motors... Here's one from speed way for ~130

They also have ones where you weld on the fittings which may be better eliminating the radiator cap.

Big thing you want to be mindful about is how the radiator is made... More cores are not better. You want 2 cores that are 1 inch thick....
Here is a good article.

I use a Griffin radiator w/ 2ea 2 1/4" cores that is fed air by a Ford Taurus 2 speed factory fan. I keeps my 482" side-oiler cool in all temps and driving conditions when all other radiator/fans failed.
