Tim,
Here's some pictures of how I installed the cooler pump and tank. I used a piece of 2"x1/8 flat stock aluminum to fab the pump bracket.
The last picture is to give an idea of what part of the bracket I used for the tank. This is what was left of the stock tank/pump bracket after I cut it (the part I didn't use). I bent part of the bracket over to make mounting "tabs"(can be seen in close up tank picture).
I cut up the molded hose that came in the kit and also used a couple of long sections of 3/4" heater hose with molded 90* bends at the ends to make the hose routing a little cleaner (I could of used one more as you can see a splice I used on the hose from the tank to the intake). The guys at advanced auto were cool enough to let me just look at what they had and pick out what would work.

Looks Great Jeff, Thanks For the pics and information. Really appreciate it!!!
I was hoping to be able to use the supplied bracket, oh well LOL!
I am happy with how the other parts of install are working out, The Heat exchanger basically bolted right up.
I also was checking on how the cable (s) for the Throttle body will work and I dont think that will be a big deal either,
Still waiting on my 90mm TB, i guess it was on back order to may 21 !, so i had to cancel my order and bought it from summit as they had it in stock.

FINALLY got her Running!
Just Finished a test Drive. Man she runs great! Fired right up after the fuel rails filled. Tuning is AWESOME! Thanks TJ for a great mail tune to tide me till i bring it up to the dyno.
No pics , just finished, its dark and im tired LOL, but i will post some tomorrow,
Took a bit more effort in an older truck but no biggie. Just had to fab brackets, trim the grille a lil for the intercooler and adapt the returnless NNBS fuel rails to return style. It all worked ourt and im stoked.
This blower does whine, maybe not like a radix but it still has a cool whine, im glad, i like to hear F I !!!
Love the instant power off idle.
Def. a great kit and with my hard work i saved a pile of cash. Im happy.
