Graeme's Daily Driver 2003 4x4 Build
#462
As for the bottom, I took the stock aluminum crossmember piece and I flipped it and bolted it back on, required a little notching. If you look in my previous pics you'll see how it made my air temp sensor flipped. Then I drilled new holes in that piece for the 40k to mount too.
Note the cooler is offset to allow use of the driver side stock hard line. As for the other line, I used the supplied barb fittings and put them into my radiator and the 40k. Because I removed the factory clip-in fitting on the radiator I was able to use that on the other side of the 40k for the stock hardline.
Does that all make sense?

I used the supplied brackets to attach the top of the 40k to the stock cooler mounting locations.

Thanks! Yea I'm going to run it till I need a built one or 4l80e. For the power levels I plan on keeping the 4.8 under, I think a properly built 60e would work. If I decide to go over 600 rwhp, I'll be looking at a bigger cube motor and 80e and will budget as needed for the swap. Who knows though, everyone has a plan till they get punched in the mouth lol!

Alrighty boys. So I'm pretty horned up. I fly home from AZ tomorrow after having my *** gapped for a week, and get a long sandpaper covered ***** removed from my ***. Thursday morning I'm gonna slap the sheep's *** while i plow into him while dreaming of getting my "blower" on and get weird.
