2000 f350 4x4 dually 7.3 radiator

Looking to upgrade my stock radiator to a larger cooling capacity one. There are so many companies it's hard to tell which to choose not looking for cheap option looking for best performance and life. Any suggestions.

whats wrong with the stock set up?
towing 6 tons with my 01 F250, my temp needle never moved a bit.
cant say the same about my trans temp tho lol

The truck is new to me has 116,000 don't know the condition of inside of radiator. Will be doing a flush and adding inline coolant filter just figured with age might consider replacing and if so why not get more coolant cooling capacity.

i got mine with 260k on the dial.
busted head gaskets, i replaced it with OEM.
i didnt look for an after market unit because i was on a budget
but i have not had any problems what so ever temp stays steady.
then again, i have a stock programed truck
still does its job.

matter of fact, now that i think about it, i have not seen a nice aluminum rad for the superdutys.
they are of a funky design.
if you find one, post back with results.
por-favor.

Mishimoto makes one but a buddy of mine who runs a radiator shop has seen a lot of them fail with in a year or 2. They are around $800.00. He found a custom builder out of Georga for $1000.00 also Griffin Thermal Product out of South Carolina for around $800.00.

Your money would be better spent elsewhere.these trucks run too cool as it is.definately dont need a bigger radiator.when these engines are in an international truck the radiator is about 1/4 the size if what we run in a pickup.if i remember,ill snap a pic of an ih radiator,youll wonder how it doesnt overheat.
