The last pick I through in just to show the old set up before the engine conversion.
Was running twin side draft carbies. Then when I put the A/C in, I could not fit the air filters on any more.
I decided to get a custom stainless steel air box made to and use a pod filter.
Cheers,

Love the front mount install and the fact the car is relatively intact. What are your core dimmensions, where did you source the intercooler from and is it possible to get pics of how much metal was removed?

The cooler was custom made for me at ARE at Brendale.GeminiCoupe wrote:Love the front mount install and the fact the car is relatively intact. What are your core dimmensions, where did you source the intercooler from and is it possible to get pics of how much metal was removed?

It used a 57mm thick 300mm high tube and fin core.
I don't have the exact dimensions available.
There was a fair bit of cutting to be done to the front apron. You can see that there is not a lot of metal (or grill) left.
Cheers,
Matthew

Kool rig, front intercooler looks pretty freaky.
