Those are beautiful welds.
I'm not thinking that's "beginner's luck".
Agreed!! Thanks for the smile and chuckle!I mean look at those welds, perfect ripples, width, and penetration; no gaps, no pits.
It doesn't get better; that's plain beautiful!
Since I think that this is aimed at me and AORP I will try and answer, one we got them cheap, and it should be more than enough cooling capacity and packaging is nice so I can run my stock 939 condenser. Now I haven't mounted mine yet but it is the closest thing to the prototype on the M936A3 that we have down here. So I think that is what I am going to use. I also like that the heat from the turbo isn't dumping back into the radiator, yes I know that is the way it has been done for a long time but I think it is better for both to have their own air flow.One thing I've been pondering: Why folks are going through all the effort to cut down their cooling capability and install an MRAP radiator via the body lift method... Originally, I was going with the bus charge air cooler I posted earlier, but didn't feel like moving around the radiator. So I went back to my roots. This is a 4" thick air to air charge air cooler that supports 800hp at far more air flow (CFM) than our motor could ever produce. It will bolt onto the radiator via the 3 mounts on the top and bottom and plumb via 3" piping to the turbo and intake we installed. It also leaves me room for the MTVR condenser I bought. It should clear the hood in it's stock location by an inch.

What's 135 degrees IAT?It's not really aimed at anyone. Just seems like a a lot of work. This charge air cooler is 259.00. So, it's very cheap. I like not having to change out the radiator. At 135 degrees IAT, there's no heat to dump back into the radiator.
I think I can also fit the AC condenser easily. I also want to drop the height of the truck, not raise it.
