This Kit will include:
CSF Intercooler: CSF has designed these intercoolers to surpass OEM standards. They are constructed from durable cast aluminum, unlike the OEM models that use plastic end caps, which are more susceptible to cracking or breaking under high boost. The intercoolers also feature a tube and fin core that adheres to OEM specifications. When paired with our bracket kit and an Obsession Diesel intercooler pipe kit, this setup will keep your truck running cool.
THE CSF INTERCOOLER HAS A TIGHT FIX AROUND THE RADAITOR SUPPORT BRACKETS, YOU MAY NEED TO INSTALL THE BOOTS BEFORE PLACING INTERCOOLER INTO THE MOUNTS. HELP FROM A FRIEND MAY GO A LONG WAY AS WELL. Obsessions Diesel's Intercooler Pipe Kit: This kit allows you to run a '99-'03 7.3L Powerstroke Intercooler to your factory 7.3 engine without changing stock intake plenum or stock turbo or stock pedestal. Piping and spider are all stainless and tig welded. Was developed in conjunction with our intercooler mounts.
Intercooler Bracket Kit: This kit comes with the necessary brackets and hardware to mount the intercooler to the core support. It is specifically designed to fit only 1992-97 F-250/350 trucks with diesel engine core supports. Additionally, this kit is compatible exclusively with the 1999-2003 Ford 7.3 Powerstroke OEM/Aftermarket Intercoolers.
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.
