Rick, Ig and I both run ours in the rear of the car.
I think George's car has enough room in the back for one.

Rick, we mount ours and all of the customers at the rear of the car also. We usually make a sheild so the slicks do not throw stones up to it.

Thanks for the info. We'll see if we can fit one in the rear of the car.

I have mine mounted in the space between the lower front valance and the radiator. It is mounted horizonal and has a fan blowing down. No need for a stone guard.

Re: Transmission cooler w/fan
Get some LAT transmission fluid and you wont even need a cooler. Runs 100 degrees cooler than regular fluid. I didnt believe it either, but its true .
