I cant say for sure but I believe so with some modification to your mounting brackets. I think your V10 coolers are even bigger than our stock 7.3 ones but the 6.0 makes two versions a 26 row and a 31 row both are excellant coolers.

I did know it was bigger than the 7.3, because I had mentioned I wanted to add a bigger trans cooler on and somebody made that comment. But is it the same as the 6.0 small or larger model?

If I had to guess I would say it is the size of the smaller one or maybe a little smaller than that but bigger than the 7.3 one.

Watch it Steve, those 6.0 tranny coolers are getting to be a hot commodity around here.

Just wondering, If you only tow 4K about 4 miles why do you want a bigger one?

I will be going to Vermont next year with the boat, and I always want any extra cooling available.

Steve I did a quick search on partsguyed.com and the 6.0 cooler is about $100 more than the V10 one but it didnt mention size.

Lee if you find enough coolers you can bring them to a GTG and have a tailgate sale!! lol

Forgot to mention. I think I got that blank tidy blank lawn mower done. Pulled the engine out again, only took 20 minutes after all the practice. They wanted $50 for one coil & wire, so I switched the front to back and taped them all the way up. It runs almost perfect now, but still misses very seldom on the same cylinder as before. Can't be spark plug or coil, have no clue on what else. Valves were all lapped, head leveled and all new gaskets. I will run it the way it is, should be fine and has alot more power than befrore I started.

I will probably stick with what I have for now. According to the stock gauge have never seen it over 3/4, except once pulling 14A in Wyoming with 12% grades for 17 miles in low gear at 25mph. Pulled over a couple of times to let cool. Now with the scan gauge, I will have an actual temp to watch.

Glad to hear ya got it up and running again! Now all we need is some warmer weather to get the grass growing so you can test it out. How long does it take you to mow that 5 acres?

Usually about 2hrs 15 min avg. The best is 1hr 58min. I time myself.

The wife (Michelle) used to help me, be she did not like our hydro front engine rider Cub Cadet, especially after she used the zero turn. She kept saying I just want a walk behind, so,two years ago I went to an auction and bought her a 52" Toro commercial walk behind. Got a good deal.

With both we can mow in about 1 hr 35min, but have got it done in 1 hr 20min. She does not help me much anymore, we work different shifts, now she just grabs the zero turn and does it all or just part of it.
