Since Faulkner tuned this truck he's had trouble getting the engine hot, and the transmission gets hot on a hard pull....I think putting the right fan in the truck has cured the engine part. Had some little dinky 30" 8 blade fan in it with like 4" around the shroud everywhere...swapped in a 32" 11 blade fan and I think that took care of it so far. He's at 93K today in the mountains and only his transmission is getting hot still...

Stupid dealer put a little 6"x15" cooler under the cab and thought that would cool enough. Not I get to find a heat exchanger to cure the transmission getting hot. Why they didn't use the same part that is on every other Peterbilt on the road I'm not sure...
