I usually install mine on the rear of the car like a rear turbo setup goes...gets alot of under car air that way.

front of the radiator...last one i did is mounted just under the hood latch....just make sure you get the hoses proper length and tightened real good. 405HPTA had one blow off a week or so ago when he didn't tighten it properly.

Plus one and mine has an automatic switch that turns on the 900 cfm fan at 150 degrees. No gauges for me.

With the overheating issue you were having I would've expected you to mount it in the rear, but it sounds like you might have that problem taken care of anyway What model of cooler are you using?

Perma cool with the 900 cfm fan. I bought it from one of the 2 companies that send out catalogs every month.

I put mine in the Drivers side fender. It gets air cooling from the incoming air below the blinker light on my TA. Then I cut a nice little circle out so the puller fan can come on @ 168 Look pretty dam nice with everything mounted in place. Used a painless wiring harness kit for it and changed out all the fittings on the 4l80 to AN Ill snap a pic of it when I get home
