radiator options for LS swap?

For some peace of mind, I ran a stock MCSS radiator for two years with LS truck accessories. Plenty of street miles and 1/4 mile runs at 800-900whp. It worked just fine. But over 900 seemed to start getting hotter than I cared for on the return road. For a NA motor, there is no need for much of anything more than a stock G-body V8 radiator.
can't f*ck with that advise..

Ill be lucky if I get to 500whp with the 5.3 setup I am aiming for, so the stock V8 rad + dodge intrepid dual electric fans with the truck accessories should be ok. Later on I may build a LQ9 turbo setup and I feel the same cooling setup should be fine. I hope the stock style V8 rad fits the GN rad support but I do not see why it wouldn't as it should be the same as a regular regal.
