Need An Intercooler Shortened

[ARTZ]

Know anyone in dandy or surrounding area that can modify an intercooler for me, just need it shortened..thanx..

Shortened end tanks or core? End tanks I could do...

If you need the core shortened in length it will be a big job, Race Radiators in Dandy may be able to help, not cheap tho.

Can you take a photo with what you want done marked?

yeah though it may be a big job, scratch that then..

Will workout cheaper and easier if i just buy a 450x300..

May still need end tanks modded though..

I got no aircon and would like to fit it in the sport in front of the radiator and shorten the pipework considerably,ideally could probably fit about 450x400..

I have a 450 x 300 here if you want it, $100.

So after reading your post i realized i hadn't thought about just modifying the tanks, So when i got home i got out the tape measure, then made up a cardboard cut out and as it turns out, if cut of the inlets its a perfect fit which means i just have to modify the inlets on the tanks....Its a tight fit but the best bit is the tanks wont block the radiators much this way..

If i chop off the 3inch inlets and weld 2.5 inch ones on an angle the on the face so (with some gentle persuasion) they will fit through

here

and here..

then it just a matter of joining this pipe

And the inlet pipe from turbo is almost a straight pipe,maybe a slight bend..

I have a heap of spare pipe here, As i originally was mounting it in the normal position

If you think you can do it and your keen mate ill happily reimburse your efforts..

I notice you do exhaust work as well
