Intercooler Bracket Kit
This kit is intended to ONLY fit 1992-97 F-250/350 trucks with DIESEL engine core supports. It WILL NOT FIT a gas engine core support. You can replace your existing gas core support with a diesel unit to allow fitment of our kit onto your truck if necessary. 2WD trucks cannot retain front sway bar with this kit due to clearance issues.
This kit is designed to ONLY work with the 1999-2003 Ford 7.3 Powerstroke OEM/Aftermarket Intercooler OR the Icebox Performance 1992-1997 F-250/350 Aluminum Intercooler.
If you do not have OEM grommets for your intercooler we sell them or you can obtain them at a local radiator shop - we DO NOT supply these in our kit!
We designed this kit to work exclusively with Obsession Diesel Performance 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel T4 Turbo Kit and Stock Turbo Piping Kit. The stock 1999-2003 Superduty 7.3 Intercooler Piping and intake spider can be used, but the piping will need to be modified to work correctly.
This bracket kit will also work with the popular Cummins, International and other diesel conversions. However, we do not offer piping solutions for those applications at this time.
Automatic Transmission Applications:
Our kit is designed to only work with the 2003-2007 Ford 6.0 Powerstroke transmission cooler. Either stock or aftermarket will fit with our brackets. We highly recommend this upgrade, so much in fact that we didn’t design our kit to use anything else. The OEM 1992-97 F-Series stock transmission cooler is inadequate and a necessary upgrade for achieving optimum performance and reliability out of your automatic transmission. We do not offer technical support for using the stock transmission cooler or any other units.
For those of you looking for performace data, here's some 3rd party dyno testing that was done on a 94-97 F-250 7.3 Powerstroke with 145k miles by Jacob White at Diesel World Magazine.
