i have mine mounted in the center. i noticed the temp gauge running slightly warmer with the cooler all the way to the pass side.

i dont have A/C but if u do it's possible the motor may run warmer since the air now has tranny fluid to cool before it gets to the radiator.

i have no a/c. so i think illl put mine right in middle of the raditor , i think thats the best since the cool air gets drawn right in from the fan there. i havea mechanical fan, thinkin of changinto electric but dont know about that yet.
