Front Mount IC's for Fbodies?

I was just curious what FMIC people are using on their TTA's. Are they the same ones that the Grand Nationals are running and do they require fabcrication to fit or do they bolt right in like they said they do on the GN's. Thanks

I have the Cas V2 for a TTA on my car, bolted right in and fits well, seems to work well too

I dunno if CAS still makes them or how easy it would be to get one from them.

HTH,
Steve

If I remeber correctly the dimensions of the core are the same as a V2 for a GN, but the tubes coming off the bottom are shorter and the lower mounting tab goes up under the radiator support rather than straight down like the GN one.

Yup and i'm gonna prove it

Actually Rob Crissafuli went 132 on a bone stock IC. So I have a ways to go.

And the chemical injection used will allow it to happen.
