Problems with FTRA install
Problems with FTRA install I was mid way through the install of my FTRA until I remembered..I have an aftermarket transmission cooler that sits on the AC condensing coil.
With the cooler in place there isn't enough room to slide the metal FTRA into place.
Is there anything I can do to make this still work? I've already cut up everything according to the instructions.

Installed my cooler dope style, but still should be room to move it over towards the passenger side if the hoses are long enough, if not remount the cooler after getting some hose.

Yeah, I purchased a FTRA kit a couple of months ago. I haven't installed it yet.......I just got my engine rebuilt and it is getting ready to be put back in the car this week. Would it be easiest to get this installed now or is it just as easy to install it with the engine in?
Is there either install guide floating around here on LS1 tech?

Here is the install guide. Its not very difficult at all.
I guess I'll have to move my transmission cooler.

Same here...Just mounted an SSRA and had to just re-mount the trans. cooler behind the air deflector. I seriously doubt it'll get anywhere near the air it's used to getting in front of the A/C condenser, but there was no other choice that I could see.
