Message: [QUOTE="tbsimmons, post: 1046525, member: 2026"] I have seen black painted end tanks on aftermarket items that reject heat but not powder coating and nothing on the actual heat transfer media, core in this case. If you are right then great, good luck, just never witnessed it or seen it. Just from my experience with items and thinking about. The more material or substance you put on something it is going to slow down the heat transfer, be it conductive or convective transfer more so on the conductive. Now it might not be a big difference for most trucks because the powder coat is going to be the same temp as outside (Lets just assume that) which would be the same as the air hitting the core. Will be a little difference in Delta T but I bet not a lot on grocery getters. What I think will make a difference is when the trucks are in hotter weather, sitting or being really worked. This was the same questions and statements I had on temps going up while the trucks are worked with just an intercooler as too if I was going to buy one now or wait till mine starts to leak. I never really got an answer. When the delta T is greater across the intercooler, which if it is removing more heat than a stock one, will be greater, then the Delta T across the radiator has to go down, which would mean that the radiator cant remove as much heat as it did with the stock intercooler.
