Default new intercooler.

Well I bought a new intercooler and decided to relocate it behind the grille. Since the truck is low the old one took some abuse down low. So I swapped places with the intercooler and tranny cooler, what you guys think so far??? And by the way is it ok to use rubber fuel line for the tranny cooler. Thanks NIck

Lookin Good!

Is this the FMIC that comes with the KB kit?

Do you have a link to any engine bay pics?

I'll be ordering a KB kit soon and cant see enough install pics!

BTW i like the Grille insert, but either way it looks good.

Wander if your IAT's will be cooler with your new location?

That's a nice intercooler...I'd paint it black to keep it looking stealthy behind the grille, as much of a sin that it would be. Truck looks good with or without the billet btw, tough choice.
