Would a spal move enough air? We spend a few weeks in the 100F + down here and while I tolerated a summer of it I plan on fixing it this winter. Can't lose the AC.

Alternator output will be the limiting factor with electric fan installation.
Winmutt, have you verified that your local SCCA group will not let an aftermarket A/W setup on a course? I've heard that this is an often overlooked rule. It should be dropped from the rulebook.
Tito what size IC is that? Where did you get it?
Ray I did verify. The exception is for cars that have them stock which is a pretty stupid exception IMO. Since the wheel upgrade and the last chin tuck I have not had any clearance problems.
Captain America was running nothing but the stock aux fan when I rode in his car and it was the middle of the summer and it seemed to do alright, so any extra e-fans would be fine IMO

You only need the fan when moving below around 15mph or so I think, after that there's enough air moving through there that they're not needed

i've got a 1979 300SD, same body style as this ... would love the air dam = natural fit for an IC.
can anybody say who made the air dam on this: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/4281707742.html
Front mount Air to Air intercooler on w123, OM617A
Intercooler measurements:
23.75" wide
13.5" tall
3" thick
2.5" inlets both on the bottom
What about a shaker hood for intercooler? Or maybe louvres or something
Massive heat soak. Check the scoobaroo forums. They're all jumping through their assholes to get a good FMIC, like led-panzer's.
Does anyone know if the w124 electric coolant pump for the cabin heater flows enough for a water-cooled intercooler?
I highly doubt it, but I can't find anything affordable for a decent price. I have one of those typical intercooler from ebay like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Liquid-Water-to-...r9&vxp=mtr
The inlet for the intercooler is about 18mm with the fitting screwed in. About the same as the pump inlet / outlet.
So how do you guys make it work? I saw Captain America has almost the same I have but I can't find any info digging thru his thread.

I am using a pump off of a supercharged mustang. It's a bosch pump, costed about $100 brand new if I remember correctly.
Fun thread this one.
Here's a couple of pictures of a setup we did For all you hood scoop guys out there
Recipe is a custom ordered Dieselmeken 8mm injection pump set to 230cc and 7600rpm
Runs our new drop in valve springs and 150bar injectors. The turbo is a Holset HE351W Billet #14 and the lot will be mounted in a Ultra4 race car in the UK.
Looks awesome right!

Here's my IC setup. It's far better than no IC. I've changed the air routing since this pic and switched the intake sections around for better cooling of the IC.

Not a picture but a video.
Piping made easy for the old 617.

2x 300x600x100mm cores
is there any intercooler that fits between bumper and radiator on 190 2.6l front? i have a 300d radiator under the top frame so the intercooler should be not more that 45-50mm thick... 450x450 max dimensions.
curentlly running with cut bumper but the cops got some sort of sickness on me... dont know why
Its a 190 but this kinda confirms a long time fear I've had about the AMG front spoilers and intercoolers. Won't fit:

full 3" ic piping, i forget the dimensions of the IC but its not that big, but it gets good air flow and thats what really matters. pretty hard to heat soak something if your moving and its constantly cooling. in my opinion ambient temps and air flow are more important than core size. tho you need core size to shed heat as well but it also provides drag for incoming airflow, so its all a trade off.
here are some.
