    grill

    I dont know if anyone remembers the custom upper grill I made, but no body really liked it. Well, its been a while and I am not that fond of it either. So... I was thinking about just fiberglassing over the whole thing, so that it is a solid insert. What do you guys think? Will this affect the cooling for my radiator?

    I am by no means a car guru, but theoreticly, if you cut the majority of the air to the engine bay and to hte radiator, it will run hotter.

    How hot? Try it and let us know....

    clean look but i think that would drastically reduce airflow into our already hot engine bay. Maybe have an overlapping split in the middle, like a venetian blind?

    not a good idea.

    from a cooling standpoint.
