Haven't done it myself, but did have a race built '68 144 that I used a late model 240/740 Nissen aftermarket triple row brass radiator. It ran great in the worst of the Texas heat with a 168 deg t-stat and an elec fan tripped at 165 deg.
You could probably fit a late model 940t/960 aluminum radiator. These have some of the best heat dissipation per sq in of any radiator out there, lots of surface area and the Blackstone technology really is better. You would need to make room for the much wider radiator, some cutting, etc.
