    I have a plate bumper and a winch, no way in hell is it fitting down there

    For the IC pipes, theres not a single hole big enough to fit them

    Run bolts thru here and add as much spacer as you need to make the whole big enough to fit the ic and either dont worry about the gap on the sides or get some garden edger and ricer trim it outCapture+_2017-05-02-20-13-01.jpg maxresdefault.jpg

    I cut holes for mine. Take your bumper off and its not too hard. And that whole "measure twice cut once" shit...? Measure 50 times before you cut.

    Mount the IC first and make sure your bumper fits over it before measuring/cutting.

    I almost made an irreversible mistake but caught it as I had my grinder, running, in my hand.

    There is an oval shaped hole on the drivers side just under the AC dryer. Open that hole up a little more, and cut one the same on the other side.

    Either way, to get pipes up front through the core support, you'll have to cut something.

    Top mount is probably not going to give you what you want. Tape a bunch of little strings on your hood and find out if there is even enough pressure over the hood to accommodate for a scoop

    He said it doesnt cool to well and recommends a turbo blanket (already on my list) and a better radiator fan

    Boost air temps from 90 to 120 are my normal. Driving around at a signal I'll get up to 160 when it's 100 outside.

    I wont lie, I'm probably gonna do the string test when I get my suspension figured next week.

    A functioning hood scoop would be pretty dope :spy:

    Only way you'll fit it with an offroad bumper and winch period will be to do this.

    It'll be tight and you'll have to cut a lot of shit up to make it work.

    Welcome to CUSTOM stuff.

    And if you think for 1 second a motor swap is going to be as easy. You should just quit while'll you're ahead right now and just leave the truck motor alone as it is.

    Seriously.

    Not being an ass or anything..but You haven't even started yet.

    Could spend that 7k else where in a heart beat...

    That's how I did it. Behind the grill will work if you remove your AC lines. I couldn't find any other way to mount it.
