Oh you mean for oil blow by. Sorry. I have catch cans so I don’t worry about it.
No I was referring to coolant. I am a former 1999 Lightning owner that had coolant run through the intercooler. I have a catch can as well on my raptor.
Those aren't for coolant. They are for condensate and blow by. Raptor is air to air. No coolant.

Got my CVF intercooler installed. Definitely a well built piece. Much larger and heavier than the stock unit is.
A few tips as there are no instructions. There are a couple of good YouTube videos on the install. I will say CFV tech did respond quickly back to a question I emailed them about the shroud.
1. A floor jack is helpful with the install.
2. The shutter shroud does have to be removed.
3. Be sure and get the fans reinstalled prior to raising the IC into position, as the seats for it are above and in front of the IC mounts.
Took me about 3 hours. Would take me about 2 now that I have done it once.

The shroud is attached to the rear of the shutters. You remove just the shroud. The shutters stay.
