Default lt1 style trans am intercooler size & location?

I'm doing a rear mount setup and not sure what size intercooler to get without having to cut or remove any existing structures of the car. I have a 97 trans am lt1 style nose. Anybody have any pictures of their intercooler on this style nose?

Ever consider the twin type ic in the fenders area
Like prochargers uses for the ls1 fbody kit?
It may work for u, and keep it simple and stealth

I was trying to stick with the ebay budget price range. I've seen a guy put one down low in front of the front spoiler but i'm not sure what size and if that would obstruct air to my radiator.

I posted this (https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearanc...mula-fmic.html) in the appearance section, but I was looking more for a formula front end with an intercooler than a Trans Am. As you can see... not much help.

Check out this thread more towards the end. This is the one I would copy if I had a T/A bumper. https://ls1tech.com/forums/lt1-lt4-m...going-lq9.html

anyways.... if anyone has some pictures for a formula/v6 front end with a front mount I'd like to see them.

Thanks for the link, but I still dont want to cut any holes in my front bumper. Looking for that tucking it under somewhere look. I dont know if its possible but I would like it to be.
