Boy, that is pretty awesome, but how in the hell is he going to going to do the intercooler routing? That is going to be tough, but none the less, awesome is the right word.

thanks for the compliments everyone! to answer your question, i won't have an intercooler for a while... i'm planning on just running 14 psi of boost or less until i can figure out just how i want to do the intercooler (and scrape up the extra funds). with the low compression, i should still be fine with 14 psi and using a mix of race gas and 93 octane. that's how much boost i ran before the rebuild, and no problems with detonation (keeping fingers crossed).

wish me luck as i hope to fire up the car this week!

Take a guess what TT means. If you need help, look at the name of the guy who posted right before you did.

hey man get a power stroke intercooler or get dual volvo intercoolers. put them infront of the radiator. just don't rag on the car in the heat or you will heat the radiator with the intercooler. you may also rig a watter sprayer setup to spray the intercoolers and the radiator to bring the temp down. That is what i would do. the volvo intercoolers can be had for under $100 each and they flow 700 cfm each. if you run 2 of them you can get 1400 cfm and they look like radiators. they are that big man. total intercooler price is going to be about $350 for an awesome setup that will bring the IAT down to near ambient temps.
