I am very interested in a spacer or a custom setup for my 112. With 100 plus days here in oklahoma I need all the help I can get. Is anyone currently working on a spacer for the older 112 and 122 radix design? Like I said before I don't daily my truck so I may be willing to work with someone on this. I would also like to now about longevity on the system, it seems to me that less heat transfer would add to an increase in longevity. Not sure on that just speculating.

Sorry Trick, did'nt see your post before I posted last. So with the heat transfer going into the air you say the ford guy's were having problems with the spacer. Is this where the larger IC would have to come into play to add to efficiency. I guess maybe add a spacer plus larger IC.

That was on fords. They have to spin the blowers harder.
We have the 112 122 pattern for spacers.
And workng on a better intercooler.

Just made me think..... I have a cowl hood, with the insulation mat still in place. I wonder if more heat would escape by removing the mat? Has anybody done this yet? Any results?

****, I don't even know if my cowl hood is open to under-hood or not. I think it's a Goodmark. Maybe I should look.

My reflexxion has an openning to the cowl area. I put a new insulator on and cut out the opening so the air circulates through.

I bet the hood gets pretty damn hot with the sun beating down on it all day.

I have worked with a few different configs already,1900,2300,112 jack shaft versions using 1/2" and 1" phenolic.

The spacer for those have been made to fit between the two manifolds, I have also been working with the front inlet front drive configs utilizing the space directly under the rotor housing. That spacer allows more surface contact to the intercooler. the other one allows more plenum volume under the intercooler.

Both designs have shown a large reduction in temps @ the rotors.
I will try to get some newer pics up.
