I'm running the 36" one but I have a TH350 in my car. Don't have my thumb drive with me over here so I can't post pics

36" here as well. I used a factory bolt on the wheelwell to hold it down.

I had the 24" for my 4L60E sicne my stock tube got all bent up and wouldnt work anymore. With the 24" it came right to the top of the cowl and forward just a bit. It stayed kinda back out of site but I was still able to access it just fine. I also didnt screw it onto the firewall; instead I used that metal clip holder that the stock tube slips through to hold the dipstick up.

hope this helps

Bought the 36" one but have yet to install it. I figured the 24" one would be too short.
