Ya I'll be running a 28 as well but with a 3:73. Going to mount the trans cooler behind the cobra emblem in the front of the car above the heat exchanger.

I ran one with a 28" tall drag radial and 3.55's. With the turbo set up I had the car was very streetable, I really liked it. I carefully trimmed out the ashtray area and moved the shifter back there, I was going to have a leather boot made to finish it off but never got around to it before I changed set ups.
