Yeah, if your custom built front mount isn't bigger than your radiator, you ain't $#!+. Just remember that.

what do you mean "going to". :D
It does not matter what size he puts in there. It cools great just sitting in his garage! and by the time he gets it running Hell would have frozen over so heat won't be a problem.

screw you guys. if i were to get a intercooler the size of the radiator, i would really have to take a lot of structure out of the core support, besides with the grill on the bottom inch or two is covered. the intercooler is perfect for the size of the grill. besides its bigger than what you got for half the price.

Come on were just teasing yah! I thought you could use a good laugh after all the work crap. I don't think I could have put anymore sarcasm in my post :D , but I guess you didn't catch it. :oops:

Your gonna put the grill back on, I thought you would just run without it for maximum air flow? :lol:

it wasn't literal, i'm a little stressed yeah, you can't fault me for that.

No worries, I'd be a little stressed too if I just found out I f-ed over an $12k motor. :lol: I'm sorry, I'm just kidding. I love you.

Gotta hand it to Brandon. Makes a pass down Infineon, pulls a rocker stud and look what we get in return. I, for one, can't wait to see this thing run. Nice going Brandon.

Re: Moving forward - pics added

How did you get the broken bolt out of the head? I did that on my last build and it SUCKED. Lucky for me the motor was out. I really screwed it all up trying to get it out myself cause it had bottomed out and I ended up breaking the easyout and then had to take it a machine shop wherre they used a carbide bit to drill it out. Cost me $90 but worth it I guess. So how mcuh further do you have to go? Still sellinghuh? Wish we couldve talked you out of it.

i spent 300 dollars to have a mobile guy come out and drill it out of the head with a carbide bit. to finish i have to bolt the rest of the exhaust up, mock up intercooler piping and cut it to proper length, install radiator and plumbing, install e-fan and wiring, make sure tc is bolt to flexplate, install ecm, install intercooler, install front bumper and grill, add fuel drive home put on cover and put it up for sale.
