What do you all think about using a motorcycle radiator for the intercooler? Can get on larger than AFCO or Fluidyne.

Why not just keep the stocker? Your not going to benefit from a aftermarket ones unless you plan on doing autox or run after run after run at the dragstrip. Go on svtp, there are a ton of threads on this subject and the stocker is good enough for the street n strip. Spend your money on something else.

Go with whichever one is cheaper. I would NOT recommend keeping the stock one.

Why? The stock one is more then good enough unless OP has a KB or Whipple, if not the stock is fine with the eaton.

No offense, but are you high? KB and Whipple has much cooler IAT2 readings than an Eaton does. So why would you need the aftermarket H/E more on a supercharger with cooler temps, than on a HEATON?
