I would try a aluminum one, there are a few sites that have custom ones like rondavisradiators.com

My dads owns a radiator business up here in Maine. If its a chevy 350 I would go copper core brass tank. you could find one from like a 70 nova or something and fab up some custom mounts. Or you could have someone build you one custom. I think my dad built some custom radiators for Howe and howe a while back for ona there military prototypes.
