radiator upgrade necessity

i am going to be replacing my engine and having it street ported, along with the corrisponding modifications to the fuel and spark etc.. how will i need to go about deciding on the correct radiator? i don't anticipate making more than 225-250 hp upon completion... will the stock radiator be enough, or would switching to a multi rowed alum. radiator be a worth while purchase..?

I had a TII that put down 260hp at the wheels and had more upgrades then you are naming. I never had any cooling problems at all. Now, I dont know what all you have planned for this car, but mine was just a daily driver. I would take it to the dragstrip and what not, but i never really raced it all that much. If you are planing on doing much more then that, i would think that an upgrade might be benificial. Just make sure that your cooling system is up to par, and your cooling fan is working properly. Good luck.
