is a small amount of leak ok? Do decent thickness multiple coats so you get good coverage (dont glob it on) |
oh my god :gay:
This is such a redneck intercooler. Jbweld is great stuff mate. |
well im not counting on it for structural strength, just to plug up all the lil holes.. and it seems to work wonderfully for that!
And yes.. Redneck it is, :) |
leak tested and approved! It may be ugly, but it works. Now to finish my manifold
|
pics!!!!!

DSM intercooler ..FREE (got it with a turbo i got of fleabay)
2 inch 90 degree copper elbows ..FREE (friend thats a plumber) Durafix Brazing rod $40 Half a new tank of propane to heat up the grill because i dont have a O/A torch ..$20 (had to get a new bottle, old one ran dry half way through) JB Weld $5.99 I think i would have been better off buying one of those cheap fleabay intercoolers but o well.. it was a fun experiance |
There's ghetto, and then there's adbradley ghetto! haha that's sweet
|
not bad but kinda small good luck man.
|
is it just me, but did the post change names...:confused:
|
it did dunno how though i can never edit my titles
|
Wonder if it could be done a lot cheaper by using JB Weld only?
This project isn't really complete until you've sprayed all the JB Weld with "aluminum" spray paint. |
true
|
Wow. Thats, uh, awesome.
|
so are you going under or over the radiator? (assuming over)
|
spacing the radiator back and the intercooler is going in front of the radiator offset to the drivers side, and the pipes will come up over the radiator.
Yea the name changed a couple times... im not sure who did it or how.. wasnt me |
