Default Intercooler Mounting (Precision FMIC onto EG)?!?!?!?

I'm about to start tackling this part of the job, and was wondering if anyone has any tips or tricks or methods to make the process go smoothly. I was thinking of using some L brackets and hanging it off the front rebar.

How big is the intercooler? You might have to cut the bumper support.

If it is the 1026 (750hp intercooler) you probably have to cut the support bar a lil

I have a 20x8x2.5 core on my EH [not precision]. Centered it and drilled holes to mount it in the core support [only held up by two bolts on the bottom]. I had to completely remove the cross bar from the front.

Hey guys, thanks for the help!

Well its a precision 350hp front mount, we tried cutting a bit from the bottom of the rad support and bolting it up to the bottom, but it hung way too low, so it looks like we have to hang it higher up, but thats gonna force it out more, which means we might have to cut into the rad support so we can push it back abit
