Hard to describe. It's on the rear face of the left side of the
crossbar, with the filter hanging down and about 30 deg left of
vertical. The lines loop over the top of the crossbar and end up
running just in front of the crossbar to where they join up with the
engine. The HARD part is making the plumbing connections that
go from the filter base over the top of the crossbar; this part is all
soldered copper fittings and requires just the right fittings to make
it work. The fittings end up with 3/8" hose nipples that fit into
regular rubber lines.
I get a different filter base from Berg. The normal base has the
ports coming out the side, but I found that I could adapt better with
one that has the ports on "top."
I should see if I can take a picture and send it to someone to post.
