I'll agree on the costmetics, but this configuration puts them in almost exactly the same place as the original GTM giant single horizontal IC, and thereby lets me reuse the left hot side and intake pipes without any fab work or rerouting. The mounting tabs on the Treadstone cores also don't really allow for them to sit flush to each other, and I'm trying to keep my welds to a minimum as I'm still learning TIG.

Also I thought that this might be slightly better for some air to get back to the radiator...
