Z-TARD Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Found this while browsing the euro-trash section of the Ecology Auto yard. Came off a mid 80's Volvo wagon with turbo. Paint can in photo for size comparison, the core is about 16X17 inches, side tanks are made of high temp plastic. They thought it was a radiator when they sold it to me, so I saved about $50 on it Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Kahuna Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 I was looking at one of those today. How does it fit? or where are you going to fit it? I test fit it up to a 73 240 in the yard and didn't see any easy way to make it fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jersey Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 There's a '73 240 in the junkyard out there in Ventura CA? Way to fool 'em Z-TARD. Looks clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-TARD Posted May 11, 2004 Author Share Posted May 11, 2004 Not sure how it would mount. I'm thinking of using it on my newly aquired 280Z if I can find an L28ET to put in it. Picked it up as more of a "just in case" item. You never know when you might need an intercooler for something...... Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vashonz Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 I have one in my '70, I had to cut out the center grill support to make it fit, and without the air dam it might interfere with the chin piece. http://yachtingphotography.com/chris/yellowz/icmounted.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-TARD Posted May 21, 2004 Author Share Posted May 21, 2004 Very cool. Any pictures showing how you piped everything in? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vashonz Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 I ran out of $ soon after I bought the IC, then before I could get any more work done I left for boot camp and right now the car is on the wrong coast for me to work on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZR8ED Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 I have the same I/C. I may have some pics in my album that show the install.. http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4290955091 Or you can go here where I have more pics of the engine.. Works well for me so far. I ran 18psi with a t3 through it, and now I run a hybrid t3/t4 no probs so far... Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
