That's a freakin huge photo!

I love what you've done with the heater hoses. Very smart for the long term.

Thanks for the comments.
As for the washers yes its all in hand.
As you can see from the pic there are a few things missing. (Mod plate, bonnet latch, washer bottle). The rad support panel isn't painted yet (Has to come out this weekend) so i didn't bother with the washers for this fitment.

Do you think you might need washers under those hex-head bolts, or are they not supporting the cooler's weight?

Looks awesome mate, very bling

I welded two standoffs onto the intercooler that were threaded (Female thread) to lower the intercooler so i can use the bonnet latch), the two hex head bolts infront of the rad bolts are screwed into the threaded standoff's. No bottom support, these bolts plus the hoses from the turbo and throttle body hold the intercooler firmly in place.

Very impressive build, how have you mounted you intercooler to the rad support panel? I can't see any bolts at the top.

Well after a week + a bit work the new engine is installed.
