    mounted there on a bunch of semis and work trucks ( not the surge tank types either ) , doesn't matter on height as the radiator when it needs it will va*** the a/f in

    The top of my pile jar is about level with the rad cap, maybe just a little lower and it has solved ALL of my overheating problems.. I also was worried about the distance the pick up/ kick out line would have to be and it's functionality that way but I had to give it a shot as I only had that one spot and it has done wonders!!
