intercooling a draw through

is it possible or would fuel just collect in it and blow up at some point?

Not possible, fuel will puddle in the IC, among other problems attempting to make a drawthrough intercooler system.

Yea, not possible.
Are you stuck using a drawthrough for some reason? If there's anyway to fight your way out of that, so you can use a blowthrough, i'd go that route.
Unless we're talking about a roots setup?

Oh well was just a thought. Just trying to get a little more power out of this engine but so far seems like I am stuck in the 165hp land ... Moving on to plan B since plan A failed LOL
