Default Diesel Fuel Cooler

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the right section to post the or if it should be in Modifications. My new addition is a ZT diesel it was the subject of an update jobs done type thread a couple of years back. Since then its had an aftermarket exhaust fitted which looks and sounds - well not nice. So I still have the original back boxes off my 260, I've sourced the RH trim (thanks Dominic) so I'm going to have a twin system built in stainless.
So the question is, has anyone else had a twin/duplex system put on a diesel? if so where and how did you reposition the fuel cooler, to make way for the backbox, there doesn't seem to be many places to move it to.
Any help would be appreciated as I don't want to reinvent the wheel, its a job I have to do before the shop will make up the exhaust.

Thanks Steve

Give Ricksta a shout, he went through all of this a couple of years ago with his Typhoon ZT, and can advise what the pitfalls are

I had a diesel with a twin exhaust fitted, it’s fairly simple to relocate the cooler in the side panel rearwards of the rear wheel arch.
