Tube and fin coolers havent proven to be terribly efficient. Stacked plate units have alot more surface area and can cool better. B&M's 70264 woud work perfect for what you want.

Heres what it looks like installed

Yes it gets to 155 in really hot weather it gets to 165. Works awesome dont have to worry about it overheating. Im going to put fans on it for in town towing with a 3400 stall when I get all the new setup in. If you live in cool-cold climate get this one.

Cold Climate with bypass
This should take care of everyone works great and easy to install comes with everything.
