Number of Rows in 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500hd
The bung that connects my oil cooler to the plastic side of the radiator is leaking. I have a couple of different local radiator shops, but I don't know how many rows come from the factory radiator...

Lawrosa,
That's an interesting point. I've put more rows in my old toyota back in the 80's and it ran much cooler.
I just assumed it would move the same volume across a greater surface area and radiate more heat - but what what you're saying makes some sense.
I already have a trans cooler that comes from the radiator to the trans cooler and returns to the transmission. I Don't know where the sensor is located (on the output of the trans or on the return to the trans), but generally on long pulls on hills, it climbs to the temp equal to or just below the water temperature - as it's on the rise, but once the water temp drop, it takes a long time for the trans temp to drop back down.
In any case, I need to replace the radiator because it's leaking at the engine oil connection to the plastic part of the tank.
