HOW BOUT SOME PICS OF FRONT MOUNTING OF YOUR INTERCOOLERS. I NEED SOME EXAMPLES OF HOW YOU'VE DONE THEM PLEASE.

It's going to vary depending on the size/shape/design of the intercooler.

Mounting brackets and where they are on the core support. Again, I do realize they will be different as to the configurations of the I/C.

They typically are in front of the core support and radiator, mounted to the threaded but unused factory holes in the upper core support. Some intercoolers with bottom mounting holes will use holes drilled through the lower core support with bolts to mount it at the bottom.

I'm wondering how much "trimming" I can do without messing up the strength of the front end. I'm wanting to be able to put the A/C back on the car at some point and need to get the inner-cooler further out past the core.

Most of the strength from a crash standpoint is in the bumper and bumper supports (under the bumper cover).

...also you will need to decide whether you want performance over comfort. Which ever you prefer will be the item that goes out in front. Meaning if you want AC to be really cold it will need to be in the front. You'll also probably need to think about a pusher fan for the AC condenser.

Matt, My i/c is about 1/3 the size of yours. Inlet and outlet are on the passenger side. I do want to put the a/c back on the car at some point and I'm planning on mounting it in the stock location.

This shows my brackets on the top going to the bumper. The inter cooler has tabs on the side. I welded a Bolt to each frame rail put a bolt through the tab with skate board bushings above and below the tabs. Or u could use sway bar endlinks bushing . It's the knock off ford cosworth intercooler .
