V-mounting the IC and Radiator

How many people have done this on the FCs? If one of the guys that has been on the forum regularly knows this has been covered well already, let me know. As is, I didn't see anything when I did a quick search. I've heard a little bit of uncertainty about this setup from some people (I think I recall because of when it stops, the heat from the radiator moves up to the IC) but it looks like it would be better as far as piping length goes and would also get a lot of air flow. It's obviously a major pain in the *** but has anyone done it and if so, how many hours of hacking the crap out of the front of your car and welding random crap in did it take?

unless you have lots of time, lots of fab skills, and lots of money I wouldn't bother trying....

it'll be 100% custom everything.

just buy a FMIC.
