I've done a little research on this as well and still can't find the best place for mine or if i want to even use it anymore. There are some better ideas for a catch than the one i have floating around. I know you searched right?
You and i have the same catch and from what i'm reading, it's not really the best option. There is a rather nice thread around here with several good ideas and pics.

I know you have the greddy one, but the ARC fits perfectly under the strut bar.

See my pic in my avatar its the on the left under the strut bar

I like the ARC, but I can't justify paying what they want for one. But considering the options I just might go out and get it anyways.

Its just a can w/ a few hoses-- the cheaper ones work just as fine! Why pay for a name when clearly one CC has no, zilch, nada advantage over another!

Just the standard Greddy one, bought from Forged. Think they only make one size??? Its a real tight fit and the aeroquip fittings have been touching the bonnet (hood) on mine. I'll get round to putting some more compact fittings on their when the weather gets better.
