Thanks. I understand how it mounts but if I mount in the same area as a fresh air heater the tubes come right out on top of the battery. The fresh air heater has the tubes to the side of the battery. I have been told by numerous people that this is indeed for a ‘48-‘52. Do you have pics of where your is mounted?
