Got the water/air I/C brackets fabbed up, built the downpipe, and got the wastegate mounted. Enjoy!

niiice! but how is that water pump pulley gonna work being that close? you wouldnt happen to have a spare 3rd gen intake laying around anywhere would ya?

that sure looks nice and clean, where did you get the intercooler? you make it?

The hub for the water pump is about 1/4" away from the I/C, and it actually sticks out further than the pulley, so it is not an issue. I just unbolt the I/C to get the pulley on and or to change belts.





And no, I do not have a 3rd gen intake. Sorry

Thanks. I got the intercooler from Precision Turbo. I just had to make the brackets to mount it to the motor.

neat, i like how the ic mounts

Very different, and clean.

That looks great!!! Ive always wanted to do a water/air intercooler setup but I was never content on where I could mount it....But I hadnt even thought of mounting it there. How much did you pay for the intercooler? What water pump will you use? Does this setup require an extra radiator?



Thanks

Chris

I paid $600 for just the intercooler. I am using a Ford Racing intercooler pump used on the supercharged lightnings/Cobras. I am also using a small aluminum radiator up front for a heat exchanger as well as a small fuel cell mounted in the drivers side rear bin for a reservior to aid in cooling and be able to use ice as well. I will put pics of that stuff up this weekend.

Very clean and unique. I like it....I'm interested to see how all your temps look when you get it running. IE: IC Water Temps, Coolant Temps and oil temps. That's a lot of "heat exchangers" in a little area...



Are you doing any special hood or duct work to flow the air better?



Either way..very cool man...

Wow Amazing!! Its good to see people still getting inovative in these cars. Looks great, keep up the good work mang.

Thanks for the responses. Its been a lot of work. I dont forsee temps on anything being any higher, the only thing I am adding is a small radiator right above the oil cooler. I am blocking off the original hood scoop to keep it from actually pressurizing the engine bay while I am moving, and I might also make some blocks to raise the back of the hood at the hinges. I really like the look of some the reverse scoop hoods, but I am trying to keep this car as "sleeper" as possible, at least when you are just looking at the outside, lol.

that is a clean set up... intresting to see fitment of the piping for the cooler. More pics soon please
