Question Downsizing a intercooler?

I have an intercooler that I believe is far too big to fit in an FC. The core is 16.5 x 36.5 in. Is there any way to take the length down and re-attach the tanks? This is a stock IC out of a 01-02 Ram 3500 turbodiesel. Is it even worth changing the size? Even if it is just to get a turbo system started.

Thanks for the response. No i don't have a pic yet, but if you go look at a 00-02 Dodge Ram 3500 with a turbo diesel you will see. It's huge. Just as big as the radiator. Remember I stated the "core" size not the overall. But yeah, get back to me.
