Our stock H/E's have brackets that allow it to be fastened, and don't line up or work w/ the E55 or aftermarket units. The E55 exchanger is 5 or 6" longer, and thicker also. I had to trim off some of the plastic mount tabs for a proper fit, and used a couple heavy duty HVAC black zip ties. It would be impossible for me to try and type out a how-to. Your performance shop should be able to handle it fine. Make sure they pad any metal to metal contact areas.
