Intercooler Mount?

Where do you rx7 guys mount your intercoolers?? Do you ever have a problem with rocks or stone or anything hitting the intercooler and bending the rows of it??

You basically mount it ever where you can get it to fit, I got a large Isuzu NPR IC in the front of an 85... So I know just about anything is possible... You just have to see what space you got and then check on IC's. Then make it fit, not everything in life is a kit

thats understandable..iwas just wondering because i make intercooler grilles..It stops the rocks and other crap that hits the cooler from bending the rows...works great and they're only 20.00

A word of advice, before you start a group buy. PM one of the admins to get permission, or they'll delete your posts.

no it doesn't cover it...it's like a fence for the intercooler...the holes or small enough that no rocks hit it and big enough not to kill air flow.......
