Show me your intercoolers!
Show me your intercoolers! I took the leap last week and got in on a group buy for a custom bracket set to bolt up a Powerdyne BD11A to my Camaro... 3.8L 
However, now I'm looking into intercooling and I'm trying to find a good alternate location to the typical front mount, for stealth and so I don't have to remove my crash foam. I removed the AC a couple weeks ago and was almost thinking I could fit a small intercooler horizontally in front of the radiator where the AC condenser was.
Anyway, I'm looking for pictures of different intercooler set-ups to spark some inspiration. I realize there have probably been 1.295 million of these threads in the past, but in about 2 days of searching I've yet to find one, so bear with me.
Thanks!

The core itself is 24x12x3....The core would/can handle 650+ seen the same core used on several boosted LS motors 550-850hp (dynoed at our shop). I Looked a lot into making this IC and learned a bit too, its better to have a taller shorter core than the other way and its better to have the core not too thick (ie not over 3" is what I have read) this all of course depends on were you have room the in-outlets are 2.5" so it will fit the stock hoses.

I just didn't see me spending $825 for an IC.
