From all the reports I've read, the fit of the 6.0 Spearco IC is extremely tight. A few have had to move their trans cooler lines, there have been some creative ways to get the IC tubes to fit, and some have had to make a small spacer for the bolts to keep the IC off the radiator. But, it is bigger, and has been tested to cool just a bit better.
I have a 7.3 IC from Spearco - I didn't know you could get the 6.0 verson yet. It came out a few weeks after I bought mine. If I had to do it over again, I'd probably still take the 7.3 version. That thing just dropped into place, no problems, everything lined up. If I get to the point where I need more IC than what the 7.3 version offers, making something bigger fit will probably be the last of my worries.
