Enjoy yourself Lee. Sounds like fun. That is a beautiful area.
It sounds like there may have been something wrong there. What are the temps now? Are you still running the V10?

Run it in series, you should have more room than in a PSD in therory being that the V10 doesn't have an intercooler.

Just my luck everybody is checking out as I am checking in. Looks like we have determined the Tru-cool is the way to go.

Jay glad to hear your mom is getting better!

Lee have fun on your trip!

I would have to put in a place to the side of the factory, or just in front of the factory one?

I'll have to check placement somewhere out of the way!

Troy, my iPhone wouldn't let me get to that last quote (dosen't work that well with long or multi quotes) anyhoo the tru-cool works great, I would think it would work even better with the later models because they already have a cooler from factory.

I'll add the tru-cool is ran in series with the factory cooler just in case that wasn't gleened from Diesel Site.

It should mount the same way, in front of the AC condenser, just behind the grill. Remember it's ran in series with the stocker...easy.

Sounds good Jason I am going to check into this. How did you mount yours did it come with the brackets you needed or did you fab up your own?
