All of my Foxes I've had were setup with a little tubing loop that came thru the bottom of the radiator support and looped in front of the radiator. That usually interfered with an intercooler or something so I would go to the junkyard and pick up a nice little finned cooler or one of those small stacked honeycomb type jobs. You can usually find them in vans.
