I still say, air flow/restriction aside, wouldn't it cool just the same no matter which way you do it? Because you still have the same surface area? I think it's a neat little project for free Hotrex.

yea, the purpose of running the charge air through the larger part of the core is because water cools 100% better than air. So the water can flow through the smaller part of the core. You should have found another one and welded them together if you were gonna run it the way you did. Not that i disagree with you, the fins definately need to be perfect for the charge air to flow through, or it will have a 20 psi restriction at 100hp
