OK, installed the heat exchanger, pump and hoses today.
First, the brackets for the heat exchanger were just L brackets from Lowes (6") cut 4" x 6", then installed using Bolts (and lock nuts) from Lowes that fit:
The L bracket is a 'Stanley' and here are the bolts, etc used to install the bracket to heat exchanger:
Once that was done, I had to 'test' the location. I used pics from and ZL1 to get and idea and then realized its offset from the front.
So, I had to drill 'pilot' holes to line it up. Once those were done, drill the bracket and frame to get it ready to install (I just used working 'clips' to hold it in place). Using the steel sleeve, I was able to bolt it up (the bolts are 2" long with lock nuts):
From the engine bay:
I also put weather proof weather stripping on the 'edges of the heat exchanger just in case (I still have a little bit of clearance away from the condenser -- which I wanted.
Hose clearance:
NOTE: The pump cannot be mounted upside down. Andy guided me to the proper installation -- which I just basically turned it rightside up, created a new bracket, and reconfigured the hoses -- not a big deal.

New orientation:
For the pump, I used these a T bracket and 2 5/16 bolts (1/2) to bolt down the clamp. This allowed me to have access to the pump and still keep it on the 'flow' side of the tank (added felt to prevent 'rattle'):
So, created the hose for the reservoir to pump:
Now, since this is near the header, some 'heat tape' that will keep it from getting hot:
Installed:
Now, hose from pump to heat exchanger (driver's side):
Passenger's side:
Filled the intercooler reservoir and let it settle -- more to come!
