Cooling down the 6.0 PSD

Alright guys, Im lookin to put some cooling down towards my engine before I start doing major mods that will hopefully have the capability to melt that thing to the ground =).... But since I dont want that what are my options? how will they affect my engine, and speed.

What do you think you need? I've done a few mods and have no problem at all with heat other than EGT's, but that's a different issue. I've never seen it get over 190 degrees even towing 8500 pounds in the summer in Race mode.

I'm confused. Are you having issues with engine coolant temps or EGT's?

From his first post, I'm assumiing he's having coolant temp problems. I may be wrong on that though.

That's my assumption as well. But his comments can be read to imply EGT as well.

It's probably just me. My job forces be to constantly look for alternate meaning in someones writing.
