And what would feed the intercooler air? some sort of a scoop or duct or something? Probably a lot less challenging to plumb up a front mount but lets still entertain the idea I guess.

i think space would be too tight and unless you put a scoop on your hood to channel air it would do more harm than good. I agree with above, You would be better off time and ease wise to just plumb it up front.

OP, there have been IM's with an aftercooler in them made in the past, maybe search around and find it. Another option for you.
