I spent some time today getting the intercooler and radiator mounted on the core support. I had it all located in the car, but with it out, I was able to drill the mounting holes, removed some factory reliefs, etc. I set the motor and tranny in even though I only have one motor mount... the other is on back order. It looked pretty cool just sitting there like that so I took a few pics.

Scott -

That setup looks incredible. Now tell everyone your true plans are to mount it on that 4 wheeler in the background... Look out.

Pretty sweet, Scott.

I'm dying to get a price on that bare OEM compatible frame from Wayne Due. I e-mailed him a couple times already and so far no answer. I know he's busy with a move right now. But he should really have someone manning the phones at his new shop or have calls to the old number directed to his cell where he or someone else could answer calls. This is frustrating. I got an income tax check in my hand and if he doesn't hurry the wifes gonna get to it before him. :lol:

Actually he e-mailed me today. They're about the same price as the C5 bare frame. So far no box...only the rack works with it because he moved in the rails to eliminate the tube housing for the coil-overs, plus also for the bigger tires.
