man, the inside of the inter cooler is pretty plugged up
i tried to make a rod to push the whole mess out of each cell and of course it just wadded up in the middle
tried rodding it out and long drill..... just a waste of time
RIP cooler

i needed a 1/2" spacer so the clamp on air filter will not rub on the front suspension bulkhead. think aluminum will tive a while?

Probably going to have issues holding torque, then blowing gaskets out

 

[turbomonty]

no gasket and i figure the alloy grows faster and more than steel so maybe over stretch bolts?

It will prbably stretch the studs. Aluminum gaskets exist for header couplers but they are ~1/8" vs 1/2". Figure 4x the stretch.
