Luce... I am sure. Here's a cut/paste from the Accusump install manual

MOUNTING
The Accusump™ will work with the tube in any position or orientation; however, if possible, mount the tube with the oil end (the end with the oil valve) slightly higher than the air end. This will prevent accumulation of air bubbles (coming from foam in the oil) by purging any minor air pocket during pre-oiling, when it will not cause any harm. Our mounting brackets are required for all units. The bands of the mounting brackets should be installed at the ends of the tube. Placement of the mounting clamps/brackets near the center of the tube could pinch the tube, causing the piston to hang up. Mount the tube in a way that it does not become twisted, pinched, or in any way distorted, as this will cause erratic operation and/or internal leakage. Be careful that the tube is not exposed to high heat (exhaust pipes), damage from stones or other cars, or used as a step. Attach the mounting brackets to the vehicle using 5/16" bolts of grade 5 or better. Use a reinforcement plate if the brackets are mounted directly to sheet metal. Tighten the
bolts on the mounting bracket bands to between 6 and 7 foot-pounds torque.
