I'm planning on installing my B&M Supercooler this weekend. Has anyone done something similar? I am curious to know where & how they mounted their cooler. The kit comes complete w/ lines mounting hw and zip ties to secure the cooler. The instructions say the best place is in front of the radiator. However, the cooler is only 11" wide, and the radiator goes the entire width of the car (practically). I'm not a big fan of pushing the wireties through the fins of the radiator.
Any ideas?

Thumbs up

Just got it done on Saturday - no problem. I even ran the engine w/ the lines off to get rid of as much of the previous ATF as possible. The mounting worked out pretty good too. I bolted the B&M on the two stock pre-tapped holes at the lower base of the AC condensor on the drivers side. With the hose running from the top of the cooler, it was a very solid and rigid mount. It was a good thing I actually bought more hose b/c I needed it.
I should invest in a digital camera some day....
