[QUOTE="tobynt, post: 11460588, member: 115996"] [b]Tork Tech Terminator Install Lower Block Clearance[/b] [SIZE="4"][B]Now that I am done playing around with taking pictures of what it will look like for no good reason. I went ahead and cleared the block for the lower intercooler line. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out whats going on here. The only exception is, the instructions call for a slot 3/4" wide by 3/8" deep. This really doesn't help other then they needed to put something in the instructions to the degree of "hey, notch the block." With that being said, the way I did it in order to make sure I didn't waste time clearing areas that didn't need it and focused on what did, is as follows. Basically, I set the lower intake on the heads. I then took a deep well socket and laid in the port where the coolant fitting goes. I used this as both a gauge while grinding and to mark up lines where I needed to clear, along with how deep.
