It looks to me that you do have the big radiator. The big tin plate to hold the radiator, along with the shroud is what tells me that.
Hopefully more airflow fixes it.

Is it worth getting an aluminum radiator or just start with fans?
Start with fans.
fans first cause they can always be moved over to a new radiator
Mine aren't mounted yet. And I'm only running a stock small block with no AC and a manual trans so my case is vastly different than yours.
These fans suck
And no I'm not finished, I need to add the relays
Like a Swedish whore?
Idling in my driveway for 30ish mins with the ac on and in drive it hit 203 degrees much better than the 220 I was seeing driving in traffic.
Fitech is running one fan the other is on a switch

I run them both on FiTech.
I don't trust mine just yet lol.
Ugh I still don't love how this is running, I think I need to move my trans cooler to help with flow
Or should I get an aluminum radiator or both?
I don't think a AL radiator will help unless there is something wrong with your rad or you go bigger. I run my trans cooler up front without any issue however with the condenser too it might be slowing down flow enough.
Can you temporarily move the trans cooler and try it?

take it out in traffic see how it does.
I just drove it around open roads stays between 203 and 206 according to fi-tech and 190-206 manual but even at freeway speeds it was 203 to 206 sitting at lights 203 to 206. Still better than 220 but boy I'd like to see 190ish
It ran a nice 180- 190 before I added the condenser. Since then 200+ is average
Oh btw we delivered plan b to my cousin tonight so we will see that at blazer bash. 
I'll reactivate the thread soon.
For the next two weeks however I need to focus on this cooling issue on nightmare

Ok so I moved my trans cooler way forward and to the side, then I took the condenser and moved it forward 1 inch. I now have a nice air gap I can feel air bypassing the condenser and rushing through the radiator. I still have good flow through the condenser and trans cooler. I will test it later.
