Got a 3rd gen ic today for the right price and was curious if anyone has ever swapped on into a 1st gen and if so i will take all the pics and advise you folks have.

Its going into a 91d250 non ic with a 9612v in it.

It's been done on here. I can't remember who did it but there was a LOT of cutting to make it work. To include lopping off the front frame horns.......

Hey now thats not what i wanted to hear lol What would be a good ic to put in it then? Lookin to hold lots of boost and be useful.

Find an all aluminum Powerstroke I/C circa 99-03ish IIRC. Not too much hacking and it gives you 3" in/out.......

i put the 2nd gen cooler in my '90 non ic truck, fit sweet, with minimal cutting, the 7.3 p-stroke coolers work on the 91.5-93 trucks, and are the largest, some non ic guys have also fit them in, how much work do you wanrt to do,and how much power are you shooting for?

thanks!

Oh im going for a truck in the 10s

Not wanting to hack my beautiful 1st gen up too much, but would love to get an ic and the polish it up real nice for some added eye candy

I wouldn't put it in if it's a nice truck. I put a 3rd gen in mine. You have to A) cut the crap out of your frame, or B) cut the cooler down and re-weld it. I also narrowed mine 1". It was way more work than I really wanted to do. Never again. IMO, you're better off getting a cooler that fits better.
