Why don't you use the Ford Probe Heater Core? The demensions are 6" wide X 9" long X 2" thick.
The outlet opening in the M90 is 4" wide, I presume the M62 is the same. By looking at the LIM, it would be just as easy to do the the M62 intercooler as the M90.
I hope to have my 2 prototypes ready for the M90 over the next few weeks. It will use the core mentioned above, be done in 2 halves and bolted together with 6 capscrews and black anodized. I will be doing of run of about 10 of these in time for spring delivery. For comparison, I will be making them available for about $700 CDN ($580 US) with the core included and SC mounting studs.
I'm also hoping to do custom fuel rails and/or spacers.
Ahhh winter...project time
Cheers,

If you want pictures just email me and I'll send you a few good shots.

PM me if you have one to volunteer for the effort, either from 92/93 or 94/95. You'll get it back when I'm done.

A week. 2 at the most. Getting my boss'* 2.85 soon to borrow, but having a stock 2.55 will be great too. It'll only take an hour or two to create the model and file, but I may need a week to find the time to do it.

Update #4 picked up my IC core today, again a little pricy, but he said the price would definatly drop if I got a group buy.......so here are a few pics to whet the appetite of those salivating SER1 L67 guys.
Notice how little clearance there is for the vaccum to go through next to the IC core...when I get the plate CNC'd the thing will have to be withing less than a mm of tolerance....I think most CNCs can do that right???
Pictures of core sitting in its future home on the LIM
Sittin on botom of supercharger
