Default How Well will it fit?

Contimplating a new IC and I fiqured with 350whp I might as well do it right and get a 12" High.

How well will this squeeze into my EG from end, What about my EF when I'm done that chassis.

I know it's a newb question, but I don't care.

Well My last intercooler I fabbed myself was a 6" so I know that.
In no way am I going to run no bumper support. I'm almost 100% sure I'm going to get it, and make myself a customer bumper support.

my boy runs the 31x12x3 in a rex, the ---- goes all the way up to the rad support. There is no chance you'll be running a bumper support. Weld a bar in there and call it a day. Cant wait to see your ---- running

no way you can run a 12" tall fmic on a eg while retaining the bumper support.

I don't want to RETAIN the support. I will re-fab one. Just wanted to know if it would clear all things up top like the rad support and such.

get a 9 inch and your golden
all you have to do is cut the bottom part of the bumper support and slide it in
bolts to the top part of the support, perfectly
The IC I am using is a perfect fit in an eg 4 door.
