They fail because they're heater cores sandwitched between two aluminum plates then exposed to 200-300* F air while being filled with coolant that is around half that temperature.

If money isn't an issue...then I wouldn't hesitate to get the full size.
It cools better, less chance of heat soak.
Allows more pulley drop.
It lasts longer and is thick enough NOT to warp like the short stack, etc....etc.
It's worth the $400 difference, not to mention the fact with injectors and a custom tune you'd be running a 3.0"~ on basically a stock car vs. a 3.25"-3.3" with a SSIC setup.
If you want to pulley down and want it to be a reliable and durable option then I would cam it.
hey look! a straight up answer by nick. Now everyone can be happy and stop going on a rant.Quote:

only long term problem with the IC exists when your egr is functioning... makes the core really dirty... other than that Ive had blowers off and on my core 3 times in the last 4 years and haven had a problem yet!Quote:
