Super cooling radiator?
On a manufacturer's heavy duty towing package this is one component. I have all of the other pieces in place except this one. Is this a must have?

Yup...agree with mkirsch...look at the specifications instead of the marketing verbiage
Even then, gotta look deeper into those specifications.
Like just comparing core thickness can be misleading...
Pure marketing many times is just that...marketing verbiage and the component or system are EXACTLY the same
This is thermal dynamics folks and is a science and technology, not marketing names...
Assume there is a difference and recommend getting the biggest you can afford. As the thermostat throttles the cooling system down to whatever is needed...and...the total capacity is for the worst case where the thermostat will open it up to full capacity

- how many rows are there in that same thickness?
- the row tubes flattened?
- staggered?
- how many tubes per row?
- fins...are they just pushed on, or are they brazed onto the tubes?
- How many fins per inch?
- are the fins straight or wavy?
- cross flow and if so, how many sections? meaning does it move left to right...then right to left...etc ?
- Does the tubes have internal fins ?
- Are those internal fins straight or wavy or twisted ?
