I'm having a hard time picturing how that sits in there. The turbo would be right where the radiator support is... How is that fitting????sigpic

the radiator normally tilts toward the engine... he has a chopped down ron davis radiator sitting straight up (like our cars).. Stock there really isnt a radiator support just a plastic cover/shroud that goes across but its not gunna be used. then the intercooler sits flat below the turbo with a pusher fan.
You can see here the intercooler and the radiator with the upper charge pipe.

Wow, didn't know there was that much forward clearance. Just seeing the air cleaner tube being short as hell made me think there was no room in the front.sigpic New 2010 project (click image)

I really enjoy seeing a Corvette used properly, instead of being trophies for mid-lifers.Kaiser George IX: 1996 Buick Century Special wagon. 213-SFI. 250k miles. Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down. First documented LX9 swap in an A-body! Click here to read my build thread!
