Re: My Front Mount Intercooler
Upper intake is next up on the project list. I'm making a front facing intake that will use the stock (or stock style) tb.
It'll look something like this:
I had flanges waterjet cut from 1/2" alum:
and actually i had a different intake flange cut that i changed the design a little to make it easier to make an intake on - so i will prolly sell this as an intake spacer if someone would want it. (adding fs thread now :lol: )
more pics of the cardboard prototype if you're bored:

I'll make a thread for this when i start in on the actual fabbing. I already have a big sheet of alum that i could prolly make about 4 intakes from - so that should give me plenty of room for error. :tup:

! Don't just settle for what's out there, push the limits. If you don't see something that you like, make it yourself...

Ok I'll bite, was gonna go snozzel but how much for the spacer? I may could use to build a NOS plate so I can speed the new engine build right straight to Hell :rotf: !

Spray bar can be done at any angle but the standard "straight down" firing will be ok, maybe a 30 deg. at most.

Re: My Front Mount Intercooler
well just a little bit of time has passed...but i just picked up my intercooler :lol:
the angle of the outlet isn't what i'd asked for (or i just explained it wrong knowing me)...but thats what you get for not being there while its made i guess. Still i'm happy w/ how it turned out, welds are really clean - much better than i woulda ever done, thats for sure.
Its a 3.5" thick core btw. Should look nice in an alum rad support :tup:

Looks really good!
What's wrong with the angle of the outlet you wanted it more straight out, your not explaining yourself again :n00b:
