Making a MP112 run cooler.

We built a 6" deep core for a Lightning, but had to add a spacer for the clearance.
If someone has a spear and some time we would be interested in building a deeper core.

+80F? 
On my Escalade, which has a 6.2l engine with a ZR1 cam, CNC'd LS3 heads, headers and a TVS 1900 with a 2.8" pulley, I've done 1/4 mile and 1/2 mile runs and my water temp preintercooler is never 3 to 4 degrees above ambient temp because the larger HEX and pump is so effective.
The next thing I'm going to work on is doing away with all that and replacing the intercooler, built into the Maggie, with an A/C evaperator. Now it will be like driving around in wintertime.

Thanks for the pics Bad V10. I too would like the specs, where you got it at , and cost of your HX. It hot here in Miami and with my setup its been 18-19* above ambient and when I wot it temp rise is slower and cools down much faster. I would still like to see my temps drop some more if I can.

Also I talked to a guy that used his cobra as a guinea pig with meth. Hetold me that meth being injected threw the j-tube does nothing as far as cooling the IC because it has to pass through the rotors which are hot. So there is little advantage as far as cooling the IC down. I personally havent done any reading up on this so I dont know if there is any truth to this. Besides i dont care to have some more stuff that can have problems.

Bad V10- will you pm me the info on your larger pump and HEX i might be looking to do something like this in the near future.
how much time we talkin? i got a 122hh i might be willing to donate to science for a little bit as long as i get it back in one peice
YOu will need to know how much room you can raise the complete set up for a larger IC.

I do. I strongly recommend the water/water wetter solution with no glycol. I noticed a 12 degree temp drop in mine when I tested the difference.
