I have mine mounted behind the fog light hole next to the radiator. I have steel bar under the 951 cooler to provide some support and protection. I have had it there for year and never an issue. I even went head first into 4 rows of tires last april. It moved things around a little, but no real damage. I just pulled it all back out.

I mounted the cooler to a 1/4 thick aluminum plate and under it is a steel oval tube bar connected to the radiator mount. It sits not lower than the radiator. The black thing is an old oil pan gasket. It makes a great rubber isolator.


In this photo you can actually see how it moved at bit when hit as it the bar under it is moved up and an angle. However it merely move and never punctured


Here you can see the sheet aluminum duct I made for cooler to direct the air to it.

Mine is relatively in the same spot, albeit a little wider and taller. It is set at an angle, with the outside portion set back (about a 45* angle). The bottom is about the same as the radiator. It will be getting air from the fog light bucket and the turn signal opening in the bumper.

So what is the ETA on this thing being out on the track??

Hoping to have it done by my 50th B-day...sooner if possible.
Two major things to source yet...cage and suspension. Really need to sell the Harley to justify the cost...just had some unexpected expenses this past week or so with storm damage to the house. Look like we took a lightning strike at 2am a week ago during a tornado warning...cant find where it hit, but definitely found the damage.
Took out the A/C...blew out the low voltage transformer and control board in the attic, and blew through the wiring outside (through a wirenut and out the side of the cover panel).


Also took out a cable distribution amp in our closet (nice burn mark on the amp and the distro box)



, a cable box, the jacuzzi tub, an iphone charger, and popped 8 breakers in the house. Luckily, no fires and everyone was safe. Unfortunately, everything is under our deductible...so replacements came out of our pocket

The car will DEFINITELY be on track next season. Just hoping to make at least one race this year.

Wow, that really sucks! Good luck with all of that.

Curt,

You gonna have this thing ready for Eagle's Canyon?
