I think we have learned something here to make a mental note of. My 65 leMans with a .060 455, loose converter 3.73's, 255/263 .597/.603 cam always cooled exceptionally well, even in the Phoenix 100+ weather with a Desert Cooler radiator. I never thought that the trans cooler may have been a contributing factor. I have a high capacity stack plate trans cooler that cools the trans independant of the radiator. I guess the trans can over tax the cooling system. Something to consider.
