Message: [QUOTE="Garbage_Mechanic, post: 1478815, member: 1610"] Swaan, Answering a few points backwards.....The 6.7 is wonderful no doubt. But you have to understand me. I do things with horses still that others are doing with quads and UTV's. Because I still can and I feel better doing it the old way. So looking at your 6.7 cooling package comment, there are 2 parts to it. total HP requires so much cooling BUT there is the part where we are cooling things that we didn't used to cool like exhaust gases. We can get away with a lot less cooling because we have a nice simple engine. Continuing on cooling I wonder if the Mishimoto radiator is all that. I don't know how to scientifically measure, but I know back in the days when I had landfill equipment core design was critical on the same square inch radiator 2 different designs on a 105 degree day would make or break a dozer. How many square (and cubic) inches is a 7.3 SD radiator? I seem to remember someone who had a new free SD 7.3 radiator making it fit an OBS, turned out wasn't much different? On the plastic fan for the EC 450, I'd just like to not have that heavy steel fan and at the same time have the capacity of the 6.0 fan. On the 6.0 plastic fan on the 7.3 stock viscous clutch, I like how it clears the fluidamper however I do have concerns it is a bit close to the radiator. I have heard of a few disasters. So I learned something today. Since I need a new fan clutch and I'm not ready (and may never be) ready to put the EC450 in I may try the SD blade PSD van clutch set up. [/QUOTE]
