LNF intercoolers

I have 2 stock LNF intercoolers. 1 from a Cobalt SS/TC and 1 from a HHR SS.... which are actually the same thing. both of them have had their cold side endtanks blown out. the cores & hot side are still in good condition. I'm selling them as a "fabricator's special" to anyone who would like to test their skills and create new endtanks for these cores.

the pictures were taken with my iPhone, so i apologize if they suck.









my asking price is........... $60 shipped each or $100 shipped for both.

you want to pick them up? $50 each or $90 for both.

i will not ship outside of the 48 connected United States...... unless you want to pay the addition shipping charges.

you know you can take the good endtank off one and put it on the other and have 1 good intercooler and 1 bad. Instead of 2 bad...

i've thought about doing that..... but i'm sort of afraid that it wouldn't seal right.

i'll look more into it tho.

I gotcha man. I did mine like a 1.5 years ago and been pushing 25psi the whole time. You just have to peel back then little tabs, pull the end tank off, take out the gasket and replace the with other one and mash'em closed. glws though

Just had to notice.. that's the EXACT same way my intercooler split when it popped... that's a rediculous design flaw...

Anyways.. Good luck on the sale.

You can't swap the two ends. They're mirror images. The moisture trap hole would be on the top of the one you swapped over.
