Does anyone know if they have this on their website yet? I did a quick look, didn't see anything

It's there. Go to their website and click on "Buy Online" and then click on "6.7 Parts" in the third column.

Stupid question, but is that “all the time” as in even unloaded/not towing?

My F450 is usually in the 200 range, give or take about 5 degrees, even when towing. Is there something different about how the oil is cooled in the F450 vs the F250/F350? Transmission temp typically stays around 200 as well. I've got the Pickup, not the CC.

This is even in the heat of summer and I'm so far South it's faster to get to Mexico going West than further South. Summertime highs of 105 aren't daily but, they aren't uncommon either.

Color me intrigued. Where are you located? I'm so far south that going south to get to Mexico is faster than going west.

I'm about 1/2 way between Corpus Christi and Laredo. It's about an hour west to Laredo and the border or 2.5 hours South to McAllen and the border.

Interesting that some trucks seem to run a lot hotter than others. Hope this oil cooler helps those with issues.

There are several factors at play but the most important one is EGT. High cylinder temp = high oil temp. If you are running a hot tune, or worse, running a hot tune while towing, your oil temps are going to be HOT, with the EGR/DPF, it's even hotter. Which is why MPD makes such a huge external oil cooler and puts it right in the bumper up front. I've been looking for this alternative ever since I had a 5* DPF on tow tune out west and was seeing oil temps high enough to kick the fan clutch on all the time (248). I've since removed the EGR and DPF as well as switched tunes since 5* doesn't do DPF off tow tuning. Since I've done that my towing EGT's have been around 230, but I haven't gone out west yet. My next "out west" trip where I expect to go over 10k feet pulling a 15k 5th wheel is May/June. That'll be the real test for me and this oil cooler.

Not a stupid one at all. Only when towing and when tackling long grades.

EOTs for my 2014 F250 6.7:

stock: 204-208 empty, and 212-238 towing 14K.
deleted: 196-204 empty, and 200-218 towing 14K.

note that the towing is flat terrain, in all ambient temps (although highest ambient temp I've towed in since delete is 85 F).

I’ve touched 250° one time. Pulled Mont Eagle doing some tune testing with 21k behind me. Had my foot in her the whole way up with her locked in 5th running 70 just to see how hot she’d get. Normally only gets to 235° hauling hay in the summer. Would love to bring heavy towing temps down with something simple like this.

Going to hijack this thread for a quick question / sorta related since they are offering an oil pan at a reduced price if you buy both. Why do you need to upgrade the oil pan on the 11 - 14 6.7s?

F450 will have 4.30 gears and substantially higher RPM @ 70 mph than 3.55 equipped 250/350 trucks.

Trust me, I'm well aware of the 4.30 gearing of my truck, I'm reminded of it every time I make my fuel budget. 😉

Wouldn't higher RPM mean higher EOT? How does burning more fuel translate into a lower operating temperature? Honest question, my logic says more fuel burned means more heat produced.
