The fin and tube coolers are cheaper to manufacture but are larger per amount of cooling capacity than the stacked plate design. If there's adequate space for mounting, the fin and tube can do a good job. | The fin and tube coolers are cheaper to manufacture but are larger per amount of cooling capacity than the stacked plate design.

These are used when space is at a premium. Often mounted along frame rails or other out of the way locations. This type generally doesn't cool as well as coolers with better airflow, but are better than not using an auxiliary cooler. | These are used when space is at a premium.
