The transistor datasheet shows how much the chip temperature rises with power dissipation and the datasheet of a heatsink shows how much is the temperature rise of its transistor mounting surface with power dissipation. Add about 0.5 to 1 degree C rise per Watt when an insulator is used between them. The worst case dissipation of the output transistors and bridge rectifier when the transformer produces 28VAC and the output from the circuit is shorted with 3A is 119W.
Pick the spec's of a similar size heatsink as yours from the datasheet of a heatsink manufacturer like Wakefield. They might even show the cooling increase with air speed from a fan.
