I saw a 100 degree drop in EGT's. Not too bad considering I spent less than $200 for everything brand new in the box.

However the main differences in our trucks is that you have much bigger injectors than I do. With what you are running, I doubt that the 6.0L I/C will even give you that much of a drop in temps. My suggestion is get the Spearco or DIIC.

Did I read this wrong? You can buy an intercooler for $200.

WHERE?

 

Look at the for sale sections of most of the diesel web sites. I got my 6.0 IC for free from a member of SoCAPS who had one sitting around.

Is it a direct bolt in or a lot of mods?

 

Direct bolt in, plus buy 2 new boots and one new boot clamp.

And you need to relocate or modify the trans cooler.

 

There is an upgrade for the 6.0 Trans cooler to the 7.3. Direct bolt in, saw it in DP magazine. Is the 6.0 I/C thicker so that the trans cooler won't fit.

 

The IC will hit the feed and return lines on the stock cooler because it sits lower and is a little thicker.

 

I'm a little dense. Your saying the 7.3 cooler is lower and thicker. Will it fit with the 6.0 Trans cooler?
I was thinking of doing the 6.0 cooler cause I tow. In either case I would have to move the trans cooler?

 

The 6.0 IC sits lower and is thicker than the stock 7.3 intercooler. The 6.0 IC will hit the stock 7.3 trans cooler lines on the passengers side. I just removed the trans cooler and mounted a bigger aftermarket unit in front of the new intercooler.

 

Thanks for the info

 

so heres a question, are guys with aftermarket intercoolers running 6.0 tranny coolers? the aftermarket ones are taller and thicker too

Thanks

Yes the 6.0L trans coolers are taller, but they bolt up differently than the 7.3L trans coolers, so it doesn't interfere with the intercooler. The lines for the 6.0L trans coolers are different also.
