Radiator for 7.3 diesel?

[12998]

I need options for cooling
Anything work for those that have done this?

Thanks

Summit Racing has a 2 core aluminum radiator that is real close to a bolt in. There are many threads on here about a Jeep conversion radiator sold for people putting SBC engines into CJ's. Both seem to cool gas engines real well.

I think, but don't know for sure that your 7.3 has an external oil cooler. If it does, then the two choices listed above will probably work for you. Get the biggest stacked plate oil cooler you can and go for it.

I plan on moving the pass side core support to get a bit more radiator in.
The stock 7.3 radiator is still about twice the size of that opening, not sure I am comfortable using such a small radiator.
The oil cooler for a 7.3 uses a coolant to oil heat exchanger that is attached to the block on the drivers side. So no need for another item in front of the radiator.

Someone put a 7.3 in one a while ago and it's been in some 4x4 magazines. I thought he was on here under user name kevin.

That's what I'm talking about!
I really don't feel like reinventing the wheel here if someone has already done the work and figured out the details.
Just a little cursory search showed me finding a downflow radiator with the dimensions and hose positions I need was going to be interesting.
The 7.3 is not exactly a common swap.
