Vertically in between FMIC and rad - alongside ac cooler . No photos as all you can see are the braided hoses disappearing behind the top of the FMIC. Massive difference to temps.

Relocation kit is not neccesary.
If you use a gauge adapter between the block and the filter, remove it.

Then mount the gauge senders directly into the engine block, and use a Mocal (for example)thermostatically controlled take-off between the block and the filter.

On classics without Aircon you can fit up to a 16 row (at least) behind the grill,or in place of the TMIC if you have gone front mount.On a aircon equipped classic you can probably fab up some brackets and mount the cooler between the radiator and the aircon condensor, on top off the lower rad support brace.
