No special provisions...you can either fab up a hold down using the adjacent assembly bolt or use silicone...mine is siliconed with no problems to speak of...

I extended the very back bolt and placed a metal bracket at the very top which clamps down nice and snug on top of the MAP. Zero problems with this setup.
