water intercooler Im doing an engine swap with an LS turbo .
no room for an a2a intercooler , so i have decided to go water , very limited in room for that too it would seem. What are peoples opiniong on mounting the w2a under the front guard ?? this only worries me bcoz if there was a leak or cooler burst , water would go straight the tyre ???

Nah with water I can mount a rear tank and a 24x8" heat exchanger with fans hanging at the rear then just have the cold water pumping to the front.
I thought if engine or trans leaks it's somewhat centered rather than straight under the wheels

i have one hanging behind the front bumper on my silverado. i use a full size radiator i mounted in front of my original one as the coolant reservoir and heat exchanger. It works pretty well but i decided im getting rid of it because its so much more complicated than an air to air setup. pump, lines, exchanger, etc.
