The main thing would be to not try to spill coolant everywhere. Just hook the hoses up and mount it.

You'll lose some coolant, so add it and burp the coolant system. Search for instructions on how to burp it.

Yeah, it's a pretty straight-forward install. Just plug the coolant lines from the plastic AST to it's respective nipple on the aluminum AST. Replace any lost coolant- DONE!
