Need RE V-mount instructions

If anyone has a set they could email me, or some good pics of the install it would really help me out. Finally putting the car back together after being apart for a couple years and I don't have any instructions for this thing. I think I have the bottom brackets figured out, but can't figure out how to hold up the back of the radiator. Anything you have please send to melon350@aol.com.

Thanks,

Nick

The radiator should sit tight to the passenger side of the car so put the short bottom bracket on that side. There is a little angle bracket that goes on the top pass side of the rad also but nothing on the driver side. The intercooler is self explanatory as it only has one bracket and is held up by the intercooler piping. Hope that helps.

What is the long bracket with a bend on each side for, kind of like this |___|? and then there is a straight one maybe 2" long with a hole in each side, and then the metal strap stuff that came with it? Do the brackets fit between the tow hook and frame, and if so do you just use washers to shim the other holes for the tow hook?

Hi I'm new here and I just finished installing a rx7 store v mount intercooler kit .I made alumuminum bracket that went from left to right of frame rails with brackets that took place of the stock tow hooks .then mounted the radiator with the stock style pins on bottom of radiator using aluminum flate bar with hole for stock rubber bushings ,the top or back of radiator i used the brackets that come with the kit with some of the stock rubber mounts (stud with rubber and another stud) now radiator is mounted in a manner in wich it would allow small amounts of movements or vibration isolated .The intercoller mounted easily with the weled bracket in front with a j nut to the upper tie bar (core support) and the left&right side bolt and nut tru the head light buckets with no mods .I then took some high density ruberfoam and made two wedges that fit tightly to radiator and intercooler with strip along back to complete the seal for the incoming air thu the front bumper .I made the a/c work by placeing the condensor on bottom of the radiator fans by aluminum brackets I had to raise the radiator aprox one inch in the front but had no effect of air flow thru bumper ,it all tucked about one inch above swaybar it works excellent drving and for alittle while stoped ideling after becoming heat soaked but is still much better than none at all..I'm haveing problem with one thing that is high idle with slow returnto low idle the greddy elbow had no fitting for iac valve so i used a small crank case k&n filter and i also removed the second trottle bldes and shaft Iwill post some pics when i get it figured out how to ,i hope this might help you .
