ok guys i searched around some but cant seem to locate any posts with similar issues. i have a 99 silverado 2500 hd. i know they didnt start making the "hd" till 01. ok this was back when there was a non hd and hd model. mine has the tranny cooler and oil cooler mounted in front of that which slightly complicates the install of the intercooler for the mp112. the oil cooler has aluminum lines so i dont know how easily i could fab a bracket and just move it down or something. any input there would be really helpful. secondly i installed the intercooler reservoir and pump because i had nothing better to do. does any one else not really like how the pump just hangs below the tank like that? sadly i was not able to start installing the mp112 yesterday because i need my truck to be a dd yet and i want to wait until i have my lt headers installed to trailer it to san antonio for some time on a dyno...thanks in advance.

For my heat exchanger (I am running a CTS-V one, which is twice as big), I have it in front of the transmission cooler, with the tru cool 40k sandwiched in between the h/e and radiator, which has plenty of space. I did have to trim the back side of the plastic grill a good amount and fab brackets for the bottom of the h/e.

Don't use the stock trans cooler, you will definitely want a big one (tru cool 40k, about as big as they get, $110). Heat is the number one trans killer. It hooks up to your stock hard lines with supplied rubber hoses. Check out the pics in the album below for where I mounted it.

Check out my album of the install for pictures: http://s220.photobucket.com/albums/dd179/smb12345/Auto%20related/Radix%20install/

TX tahoe, that looks pretty damn sweet. Any links to more info on that setup (already went through your PB pics)?
