Are you sure you're not confusing the condensor with the radiator? Or am I? See pic, it's where I put mine's...in front of the condensor.

That is where I put mine. That is the radiator though.

I thought the coolant goes through the radiator? Where I put mine's, R134a goes through that, not coolant.

I am pretty positive that is the radiator, and has nothing to do with the AC.

When I removed that to do the cam, R134a came out, not coolant.

This is the same position that I mounted mine, lets make sure that I saw your picture correctly. Here is the page that I installed my cooler by, fastening to the radiator.

Read over it and see if they are the same.

The tranny cooler you, me, and Brent franker is installed/placed on the condensor (see pic, left of the valve cover in the back.) The radiator is in the foreground. The condensor is installed in front of the radiator.

So the cooler is mounted to the condenser, but the zip tie holders go through the condenser and through the radiator to were the lock things go on to hold the cooler, because I took the fan shroud off the car to get the lock things on the zip ties.

Maybe that is where the confusion came from, hehe.

Correct. The zippy ties things goes through the condensor and radiator. Maybe somebody should tell Brent Franker his install guide webpage is in error. It's not gonna be me.

You can see the water pump, electric fans, radiator, and condensor (can barely make it out from the pic).

OK, cool, sorry about all the confusion. My bad.

Yeah lets blame it on Brent, hehe. So I knew where it was at, the same as yours I just didn't take into consideration the condenser.
