Default LS7 remote oil filter location, and other install ???

I'm in the process of installing my LS7 in my 69 Camaro, I'm using one of Tylers ATS kits (motor mounts, oil pan, headers, etc), anyway for the life of me I can't figure out where to mount the remote oil filter, anyone here have pictures? I also want to run a ac setup, but don't want to buy a front runner setup, what's my options here? One last thing, I had to reverse the motor mounts to get the T56 to line up with the rear cross member, is this normal, I also had to notch my subframe cross member to get enough clearance? I wanted to talk to Tyler, but he seems to be AWOL.
Thanks

I think the best place to mount the oil filter is on the inner front frame horn on the driver side.

The A/C will be an issue if you are trying to use factory drive parts. usually mounts the compressor low on the pass side and the sub will need to be notched to clear. some of the Truck drives mounted the A/C up higth but they look BAD

What do you mean reverse the motor mounts?

What trans X member are you using?

That whole system (if your using the ATS T56 X member) is a slam dunk and no modifications are needed, if your using some other X member than i would have modified it insted of the sub X member.

hope that answers some questions
