stretch Stock location intercooler install

[bayareaturbo]

I bought a thunder fab 22 row slic from a board member. It came with no instructions and I have never installed one before. It came with a bracket and two hoses. I took the old stock intercooler off already and now I'm wondering is this just a bolt on or do I have to take a few things off?

should be pretty much a bolt in install, i installed a stretch gbody parts one not too long ago, had to modify the shroud slightly to fit and take off the triangle braces i had underneath the front of the car as they wouldnt work with the ic.

I bolted it to the flimsy bracket it came with. I cant get the shroud in. Do I install the shroud before or after the intercooler? It also seemed not straight and when I alined the intercooler it pops off the hoses?

you might need to clock the turbo.

you might need to clock the turbo.

Probably right. Lossen the 6 bolts a few turns & point the turbo where you feel it lines up best. Tighten the back up!

Ok ill do that and see how it goes

 

[bayareaturbo]

Are you guys talking about these bolts

 

[BIGPSI]

yes those bolts. loosen them just enough so the turbo housing will move up or down.
