Question on a air to water setup. Anyone make a inner grated unit for a carb that sets on the top of the engine like a fi NRE x Ram?

You mean like this?

I have the upper and lower box for the carb and you would just need a inter-cooler brick fabricated to sit above the carb.
At one time Vortech sold the things. See Pics below They were all made (actually) by Shelby Spearco (George Spears).
I still have some inter-cooler bricks but some good fabrication skills would be required to make one today, JC.

I wish Vortech still sold the 4150 or even better a 4500 lower. I have the top, and Shearerfabrications can make the core.
