Default need help with IC choice

I know a lot of you are running ls1 and I'm running an lt1 but I need a good air to water intercooler and ideas for mounting location. Setup is a 383 with header hotparts and a PT88.

ive got some junk i got off ebay for 250 bucks on my car, i figured if that didnt work well i would get the precision like a lot of others have. Mine's mounted in front of the left front wheel so the inlet is behind of the radiator support and the outlet is in front of it ( pretty standard, a lot of people mount them there) ive only had boost up to 7.5 pounds but so far its worked well.
