Default Accusump plumbing location?

Hey guys, I'm curious to where you have your accusumps plumbed up to. I already have a improved racing oil cooler adapter, so the block off above the oil filter pedestal is already being used. I don't think a sandwich plate would work because it would just dump a bunch of oil into the cooler before it would dump into the motor. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If you have an oil cooler, simply tee it into the oil cooler return line with one of these:

And if you want to prevent the Accusump discharge from flowing in the wrong direction, you can use this check valve: http://www.improvedracing.com/oil-ac...280-p-205.html

Sorry, I just saw this before I asked about it in the other section I have asking about where to set my rev-limiter. Even though its a thermostatic cooler, It will be fine to tee into? I assume I tee into the "in" side correct?

Yeah, you want to tee into the return, so it doesn't have to go through the cooler first. And yes, no problem with it being a thermostatic.
