With the blower installed and torqued down, the charge air cooler is then installed. The LS9 employs a liquid-to-air charge cooling system; inlet air temperature is reduced by up to 140 degrees F for a denser intake charge. The design of the supercharger case and the integrated charge cooling system were dictated by the space and dimensions under the Corvette's hood. To that end, the charge cooler was designed as a dual-brick system, with a pair of low-profile heat exchangers mounted longitudinally on either side of the supercharger. It's only slightly taller than the non-supercharged 6.2L engine. View Related Article
