Message: [QUOTE="Mdub707, post: 168846, member: 107"] I never understood why everyone thinks one cooler is better than the other... First of all, what do you mean by better? Better as in less failures? Or better as in it cools better? I bet the square one has more cooling, since there is more surface area in a box than in a cylinder. I also don't buy that there were less failures, it may appear that way simply because there were just far less round coolers ever made than square coolers. If one design was truly better than the other, would BPD still offer both as upgrades? I'm not saying any one way is right or wrong, I just don't buy it. 06/07 6.0 would be one of the better one's to get, I agree. The STC fitting will probably fail at some point, but if someone is diving in to do the headstuds, then it can be addressed at that point, not really expensive. Even if this truck had studs, I'd be leery of how the job was done, if the heads were gone through, the gaskets used, or even the torque method used. Lots of wrong ways to do a headgasket job on these, not so many right ways. [/QUOTE]
