I'm running a Howe from Crites. They asked on hose placement so I have both on the right. Took a while to find hoses but the install was simple as their bracket almost fit.

I just put one of those HOWE units from crites in a few days ago. I had to play in the back room of Advance Auto to find a lower hose. An upper for a 71 Stang with a 351c worked with minor trimming. Problen is now my Rad. Cap hits the hood when I close it. I can modify the brakets to make it fit but I thought they would have been better engineered. I paid $250 for everything so I guess it was a good deal. Overall the headaches were minor compared to other things I've run into in the past. Oh It seems to work well too.

Had the same problem with my hood, had to do some minor surgery with a Demel to get clearance. Also made a cover from flat aluminum stock to cover the top of the radiator. What psi cap are you using?
