Default Intercooler locastion - 1974 C10

I have a 1974 C10 that is getting an LS turbo swap. I plan to run AC, Remote Trans Cooler, and of course a FMIC. I'll also have as large of an electric fan as I can pulling

How is everyone making all that fit? It's got a ton of room up there but with all that it is getting cramped.

See a few mounted a few degrees up from horizontal between the front rails with a small scoop below the bumper directing air flow thru the fmic. One guy cut vents in the hood to relieve air pressure but that seems like overkill to me.

Anyone here doing this, pics? Based on the measurements I took this looks like a fairly straight forward job in terms of mounting it.

Mine's up the top, I removed the vertical and the latch and use pins. Truck is too low to put behind the bumper. Also cut out most of the flat surface in the core support itself.
