Alright, I know some of you have done it but I've searched and searched both here and elsewhere and can't find much on how. I'm most of the way done thru slapping a 12 valve in this thing
The things in there and I have all the wiring worked out etc. However, the intercooler is giving me some trouble, mainly just finding a good fit. As I'm sure y'all are aware there ain't much room up front for more stuff than factory. Trucks a manual so there's no trans cooler to deal with, and ac is missing currently so I'm not too concerned about that deal either. I was going to try and snake around the 6.5 rad but there just ain't enough room for it. So I intend to use the 2nd gen dodge intercooler here, as it seems it should *just* fit in the rad support. I'm fine with some custom fab, been doing plenty already and I weld for a living anyway. However, the second gen rad +cooler doesn't seem like it's gonna clear based on my measurements. That being said, I know there's other Cummins swaps here, and I've read those threads from start to finish. But they all either went non-ic, or they show and tell nothing about how they fit up their coolers. Sooo, if any of y'all are kickin around here, I'd love to know how ya did it or if anyone has any good ideas I haven't thought of. Once I get this thing finished I'm gonna compile all the pics and info I have from building it into a big thread, but for now I need this thing finished and fitting the cooling stack in here is the last big hurdle to get by
