Heres a couple pics of the install.
I didnt remove the bumper as some do for the install. I used Banks techni cooler pipe kit. I had to buy the Ford factory intercooler boots, 3 1/4" to 3''. I also had to cut an 1" off the ends of the I/C pies and weld a bead around them to prevent blow off. The AC condesor brkts were shortened and straightened. The support bracket/ hood latch assembly was cut out and replaced with a piece of flat stock. Instead of bolting bottom support brkts to the rad. support, they were welded to the frame. Any questions, pm me, and I'll answer to the best of my ability.
everything removed
holes cut in rad. support
ac condensor brkts cut and straightend
flat stock used for the hood latch. I actually cut the top of the support and welded in the flat stock
1" square stock with a nut welded to it for the bottom I/C support. Welded directly to the frame.
I bolted the top of the I/C to the rad support...sorry no pic.
couple more pics....
A big Thanks to my friend Wes, who allowed me the use of his shop and tools.
Also, a thank you must go out to my org. friends who also helped with their knowledge when I ran into a problem.
