as far as an intercooler. I have one like the one you want to buy. 3" tubing. Seems it can go somewhere, but not sure where. I haven't had time to mess with it. Somewhere on youtube a kid has a van with an intercooler. but there isnt a bumper on it yet. But he did it.

as far as i know, they are all the same. i don't have a y pipe yet either. so i didn't bother exploring how to squeeze an intercooler up threre.
I wonder if there is even a big bennefit to even having an intercooler. These aren't rice burners. These are slow and low rpm iron tanks.
Do semi's have intercoolers?

Old thread.. But mine has a first gen cummins and intercooler installed. My IC is in bad shape and I'd like something which cools better..
The only thing preventing me from installing a power stroke IC is my hood latch is in the way.

I gave one of our members a cooler that I think has the potential to fit. I haven't heard if he's tried sizing it up yet. Pretty sure it was from an International box truck with a DT444E (AKA 7.3 PS) or maybe a DT466E engine. Width seems similar to ours but it's much shorter in height and thicker to make up for the loss of height. He didn't have his van here to take any measurements, my vans are IDIs so I didn't bother checking.
