I would imagine a lot of trannys have been burned up by not having a big enough radiator. If you're going to pull heavy loads very much you need to get the biggest one you can find. A good radiator is a lot less than a tranny rebuild. I had a 94 GMC 4x4 that started overheating and when I removed the shroud there was about a 2" core in there. I said well, no wonder, it has a wannabe radiator. On top of that I noticed the newer engines are a lot hotter under the hood when you lift the hood. I never have any problems with my 72 Chevy 4 core copper radiator and they aren't very much smaller than the radiator in a C50 medium duty truck radiator. I know I've blown a lot of radiators out with air and I always get lots of dust. I like clutch fans because they aren't as noisy. A good flex fan will pull a lot of air but they're a little noisy. A heat gun will always tell you where the heat is. If you do install a flex fan you have to make sure it is in the right position in the shroud or it will actually blow air out the front.
