Does anyone know the size of the rad required for a 6V92T? I am changing from an 8V71 to a 6V92T and I know I will need a bigger rad. I need to know the number of rows of tubes, thickness of the core, overall size without the tanks and the number of fins per inch so I can get a rad made up. I am also trying to locate a V92 engine manual. Does anyone have an extra one they would sell? Thanks for your help. Bill

Bill it would help if you told us which bus you have. Look on ebay for your manual.

I am putting it into a GMC5303. Will be a tight fit but busnuts like a challenge. Right? I have heard of it being done but can't remember the name of the person that did it. I was asking the rad questions as I don't have room for the 6V92 rad, I currently have a rad from a 4905 in there but the 92 will need a bigger one because of the extra HP. I was thinking I could go thicker and keep the same height and width.
I looked on ebay for the book but none are on there. One guy is looking for me but he doesn't think he has one. Bill

On an RTS with a similar V-drive setup and radiator the biggest radiator we can go with is a 7-row. If you know the dimensions of your radiator you can call General Radiator and they can give you a good price on the biggest core that will fit your tanks. They'll ship you the core, bolts and gaskets and you can install it yourself:
