Hi Derry, from what I understand you should at least consider getting your radiator re-cored. That's quite a tight engine bay and the 350 will need all the help it can get.
I'm doing the same thing with my '50.
Regarding the trans cooler,i'm putting a remote one mounted in the chassis,or possibly in the void between the rad and grill.There are loads of options.
I haven't decided yet.
Someone else will chime in with more advice soon.....
