But didn't some of them have it mounted on the fan housing near the middle of the car. I've seen these in photos but I 'm not sure if its a stock placement or an after market "we needed to put it there because we added such and such here and there was nowhere else to put it" setup. I think I've only seen them on post 66 to pre 70 vehicles though. Could be wrong? Regards, Wayne '72 Notch '73 Square '83 Sigma
