Actually a pretty good size, I forgot to snap some pics of it before stuffing it between the condenser an radiator. I know it's not the ideal spot for it, but there is no room for the freakin thing its half the size of the radiator..
Whipple did a great job designing the setup..

I know I'm a little late but this caught my attention because it's a 6.0 Whippled OBS. I got a 6.0 (lq4) getting swapped in my OBS c1500 and I was wondering if you bought the kit for the 03-06gm.

Get the 99-02 kit if you can find it for the return rails. Otherwise they are basically all the same
