Hi All,

My Dad and I are (incredibly slowly) building a 5.3 Turbo LS 56 Truck and am looking for intercooling inspiration. Despite looking pretty large, there isn't as much space up front for radiator, fans and a decent sized intercooler. I'm starting to think maybe an air-to-water intercooler might be the best in terms of packaging but I would still really like keep it simple with an air-to-air. I'm running a corvette LS3 water pump ICT Billet accessory set up to claw back 1.5"s.

Has anyone got pictures of an intercooler set up on a 55-58 truck?

Any help would be much appreciated.
