That's true but the dealer could hang me out to dry for a small item like that, no problem, save the warranty in case something special happens, which I don't anticipate, but you never know, 8 more months left and then it doesn't matter.

That's kind of a mis-statement isn't it? The stated capacity of the enitre cooling system is 30 quarts or 7.5 gallons. The radiator does not hold that much.

The fuel cooling system is another 2 quarts, to make the total coolant required 32 quarts or 8 gallons . . . if these specs are accurate, which they have yet to prove to me.
