Oversized Radiator question

[shorty]

Sometime back I saw a thread on oversized (increased capacity) radiators for our trucks. :dontknow: Can't find it now so if anyone knows the source of these radiators I would be much appreciative.

Pretty sure it's roe racing it's a all aluminum one and I think it's near a $1k

Thank you sir, now is there anybody that makes an increased capacity oil pan of the '05 engine?

Just a oil pan off an '06 I think?

Not sure. :dontknow: I drove to west Texas Monday in 95-101 outside temp. Temp got to 205 and oil a little hotter. I turn off the air conditioner and turn up the heat and temp starts down. That sounds like increased capacity is the solution. :dontknow: I do not know what constitutes high temp with an aluminum engine I know heat can do a lot of damage. Here in Texas I will be driving in a lot of 100+ weather and even sitting in line at the bank the temp went to 200 with 85 outside. I may be worried for nothing but rather error on the side of caution. :rock:

By the way, that is driving at 80-85 mph and when I slow to 70 the temp starts down. 355 miles on flat great back roads you can see forever with 75mph the average posted speed everyone is at 80-85. I really do not want to have to slow to 70 mph during the hot summer.

pretty sure that Tony @ JTSVP offers one also.

According to the weather it was 103-107 in that area Monday so running 200 coolant and 210 oil is perfectly acceptable bud. You're no where near where you were last year

Thank you. Not sure I need one but have a concern. And I hate running my heater in the terrible heat.

Roe's is 100% all aluminum no plastic tanks on it .Not cheap but works and looks real good .

Do you know how much added capacity?

You would have to call Roe on amount

He needs surgery to fix it back up but he will be lucky if he does not get fired because he bypassed a safety on one of my robotic arms to work on something .

Yes sir, probably every month.

JMB's electric fan was the ticket for mine to drop in temp. With a 172 degree thermostat, Justin's fan, and Evans coolant it doesn't climb higher than 175 degrees, ever.....but I rarely see the ambient temperatures you do, max here is about 95 F.

It was 36 and snowing here today.
