    Is there a suggested radiator manufacture? I know I have heard about Detroit Radiator but are there any others that I should get a quote from. I am going to talk to the local Kenworth service manager about the radiator requirements for the engine for this truck since the parts girl apparently never got anywhere. I also found a broken manifold bolt the one directly below the turbo that mounts to the engine.

    Just to update this thread. I have replaced the radiator and while doing so found a crack in the ata and replaced the fan with a bigger one. I am still not happy with the cooling so I am going to dig deeper like suggested when I get some time where I don’t need the truck Monday. The old core was definitely in need of being replaced.

    Anyone have any suggestions on preferred methods of flushing the coolant system?
