Manual to Automatic switch...need advice

Next weekend I am driving out to RPM transmissions to switch my manual for an automatic. I am doing this swap because I mainly want to drag race the car and do limited weekend driving, cruises, car meet/show stuff.

I am also going to have an LSX 454 built...looking for around 650 to 700 rwhp NA. The question I have is: I obviously have to switch the radiator....any suggestions on an aftermarket radiator that will keep it cool?

I've heard good things in regards to Dewitts Radiators.

Are you saying you need to change radiator for the auto conversion, or the LSX? Because you can run the stock radiator and just add a trans cooler. I bet you're excited!
