Some guys have blown the plastic tanks on the 6.0 coolers. Granted they were modded trucks, but it can happen. I personally would just stick with your stock 7.3 cooler. All aluminum. Like others have said, there's not much difference, if any, to really do the switch. Or just get a very nice aftermarket one like a previous poster (i have no memory whatsoever and totally apologize for my flakiness) had done. I have a 6.0 cooler that I am not installing. Just my .02

I have done the install, not a big deal do have to change the tubes. I too tow 13K fifth wheel, had a hard time in the mountains staying away from 1250 the 6.0 did help some. You are not going to get 100 degrees out of it, but you can expect 50. I did it the same time I put the 6.0 tranny cooler in, now IMO thats a must for heavy towing I have no more heating problems with my stock tranny. Anything is an improvement if you are towing.

6.0 trans coolers rule.
