I've already modded my AN10 lines to have a 90 deg elbow instead of the 45 deg ones, but even with that the mounting bracket will need to be moded IMO. It is designed to fit behind the crash bar and use the plastic clips on top of the crash bar to hold it on, you can't get it behind the crash bar with the clip holes lined up with the IC mounted.

I've drilled the clip holes all the way through the crash bar so that they are in the same position on the bottom, and was planning to get some longer bolts and some nuts to hold the mount on, but the stack height of the oil cooler mount is too tall and would need to be cut down by the thickness of the section of the crash bar that the mounting bolts would feed through.

Hope this helps/makes sense. I'm not sure what I am going to do with mine at this point.
