front oil cooler install- a little different

I am clicking along with the 100's of items still left to do on my /6 conversion with the front oil cooler being one of them. I did quite a bit of internet research to see how most guys are doing their cooler installations and I came to the conclusion I didn't want the cooler mounted in the front trunk. So I decided to mount the cooler in front of the tub under the bumper and build it into the front valance. I started last weekend and made more progress today. I will be running a 1978 3.0 with carbs and I found this Behr cooler on one of the forums. I still have to " box in " the cooler but snapped a couple pics. It looks like I'll have good air flow thru and behind the cooler and over 6 inches off the road surface to the bottom of the cooler. I may run the cooler lines thru the trunk or route them thru the wheelwells I'm not sure yet. So what do you guys think?
