Intercooler mounting
Where are you guys mounting your intercoolers on the gen 2 c10s? Don't want to hack up my 83 too badly.

Re: Intercooler mounting
Depends on how much intercooler you have, what radiator your running, if your running an a/c condensor etc. You can low-mount an ic tilted, down by the front frame horns. This spots been used for trans coolers, intercoolers, other coolers lol. While it doesn't get the head-on air like you might in the center of the grill, if you add a small deflector, you can get a surprising amount of air up into that spot.

Re: Intercooler mounting
mine is a 68 but it is mounted just like Brew said. I will try to snap a picture tonight. I don't have a deflector (yet)

Re: Intercooler mounting
Back from the dead as I get closer to completion. Any pics of intercoolers mounted in the C10?
