I can do it but it would take you a year in a Radiator shop for you to be able to do it, and i dont have the time to teach you.....If you need something done I might be able to do it, but if your looking for info there is none......Heat displacement is about the lowest attended automotive trade in the world.....lol........just get a job in a radiator/AC shop.......(Its easy they need help)

How big is it now (core dimensions)? Why do you want to cut it down? Would you sell it and you can buy one that fits?

na im just saying buying a powerstroke core and cutting it down and welding some end tanks on it would be a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a new intercooler. im saying i can get my tig/mig/stick welds done no problem i just want to know what it actually takes to do the job
