There ya go brother, almost done. Sorry about the first pic, looks like my son showing off the ant hills, I mean the guns!!! Notice the jig we use, only way to line things up. I guess the other IC builders in our community must have one like that too... I'm waiting on some thicker alum spacers for the elbow and Brian will be done... anyone else want one..... this is the baddest of the bad.... we have several different custom cores available.

Looking good Jack and Brian. The main reason I had you build it because it was made in the USA. I hope it bolts in like my Precision front Mount did?

Nope, bolts in better, top existing bolt holes in your header and drill 2 holes in the bottom of the rad support.. we still have to fab the lower bracketts..

Really nice work of art. Nice job Brian.

Jack, is that a bigger unit than the one that's in my car?
The last time we were out you were saying about upgrading my intercooler.

Really!?!? What ever do you mean Jack!

Gonna have to save my sheckles. Will my inlet/outlet pipes be reusable?

Tony, what intercooler did you have in there before?
Do you have air temps recorded?
Would love to see the difference after you get it back together.
