I have some experience with mid/large frame forced induction. Slick set up. We use 42R internals in a 40R housing as the high pressure unit on twin set ups.

Looking good!

I guess we will have to play around with intercooler Research and Development, until we find the best dimensions.

I've got a 4.5" on mine and some very high CFM fans and I think I'm going to drop down to at LEAST a 3.5" core. I don't seem to get as good of a temp drop on mine as I'd like. Do you know what kind of temp differential your planning on achieving?

As i was talking to the brains behind the project (Chris @ Turbokraft), we agreed on going between 3-3.5 inches in width, so we could get good cooling/temerature drop and the lowest pressure drop. Trying to get the best of both worlds.
