ok i have 16 rows of fins?????????? reg cobras have 13 rows, so what do i have??

 

BUMP!!!

I need help with this project. I already have everything. I have the BWoody brackets and the Cobra HE. As I want to make sure I get everything right and not screw anything up I thought the brackets would have come with mounting directions. Afterall, TTR's rear sway did and you didn't need them. So, I sent an email to BWoody saying this:

>I recently purchased a set of Cobra heat exchanger brackets for the Chevy Cobalt SS supercharged. I received them today and immediately inspected them. Unfortunately, I did not find a diagram or instructions in the package on how to install these. Upon initial inspection, these brackets seem counter-intuituve. Some help would be greatly appreciated.

>Thanks in advance

Thier reply is what follows:

please search the cobalt or redline forums as these are universal brackets, and each person mounts the differently.

And, my reply:

That's really disappointing to hear. You guys manufactured them. You should provide directions for how you intended them to be utilized, especially since you guys designed them and offer a 2 year warranty. I guess I could always screw up and have you guys warranty them right? You guys designed them to work a certain way. It's obvious with the fact that the insulation tape was already installed. This was the first time I ever bought something from you guys. It leaves me to wonder if I shall do that again. Sorry for wasting your time with essential customer service issues.



So, can anybody here help me? Before replying with something stupid like "use the search function," I would like to inform you that I did that before attempting to contact BWoody about this. Obviously, my search was not satisfactory.

Any help with install pics would be nice. I don't need the mapping of the lines. I already have that diagrammed and figured out.

Thanks in advance.

 

Could it be from a lightning? From what I recall the cobra ones look a bit...well...shattier.

It's actually pretty straightforward you sandwich the h/e between the brackets and then mount it on your bumper bar with holes that you drill...at least that's what I recall. These aren't bolt on.

Not to be a dick but there's a high probability that if you can't figure it out you will probably screw up the hosing and bleeding. Get someone on here near you to help you...just a suggestion.

 

I already have a class 8 diesel mechanic who has offered to assist and to do it in his shop. If you look in my sig you will see that I have the GM 2pass. I've worked on this thing before. I had an idea of how to do the cooling lines with elbows. He helped me out by recommending pre-bent fabricated hoses to eliminate the elbows and using several brackets. I would like to see a pic of this thing installed with the BWoody brackets. That's all I really need.

The big problem I see is that the L brackets look like they should cradle the HE. However, the insulation foam/tape BWoody used is on the outside of the L bracket and not the inside (see pics from OP at top of page). Hence, the part that seems counter-intuitive.
