trans cooler row count

I was given a cooler and told it was for a 6.0.
When I count the rows I only count 15 rows. So now I am not sure what year of truck it came out of. Do I count only the main tubs that run across the cooler?
Thanks Keith

The 6.0 trucks have a 26 or 31 row cooler. There were some early trucks with 25 row coolers. You probably have one out of a V10 truck.

I understand that the 26 row ones are actually better than the 31s......anyone else?

I believe Mark who used to be a former Ford Trans tech said that his measurement indicated that both the 6.0 coolers performed about the same

The original stock air-to-oil coolers in the 7.3's were only nine-row, and a V-10 cooler was considered an "upgrade", so I would guess that the 15-row cooler is probably from a V-10.

I am led to believe that due to differences in design, the 26-row and the 31-row have virtually equivalent cooling capacity.
