I think your filenames are too long, and are getting munged by either the PHP parser or the browser.

Excellent! Thanks Thom!
---------------------------------------------- When we went to Daytona for the 24hr, a pre-race radiator replacement got the mind a - thinking...took a few pictures in the garage. Look at the top pic at how a GT3 has its radiator positioned. Why couldn't a 74-89 with a center mount oil cooler function the same way? Top center vents at a low pressure area in conjunction with the high pressure radiator inlet? Check. Couldn't we add those to the 'smile' filler piece? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let's see what we have. Cooler mounted close to the pan. No shrouding. Air flows right past the center cooler. A Carrera cooler in the fender with 2 fans + this essentially non-functioning cooler + a modified 3.6 = 250+ temps at the track in 75 degree ambient temps. Not good. Improvements needed. Time to get to work. So, what did I do here? Hole saw the holes in the center of the front bumper. May clean up to open the entire center section which creates a long rectangle. Bumped out the cooler an inch from the pan. Added sheet aluminum shrouding at the bottom on the bumper - a piece as long as the cooler and 2 inches wide, screwed to the bottom of the bumper and painted black. Easy to do. Also added a piece inside the upper C-section of the bumper to seal the top. 1 pieces on each side, and the cooler is boxed in. Cut slots in the smile/steel inner smile piece and painted to match. The result? Air flow *through* the cooler and a majority goes UP through the slots and over the hood. Functional results? Identical conditions last year (72 degrees) resulted in 250+ temps. This year........215, tops. Cost? Minimal, if you already have a center mount cooler. A HUGE difference!

2. what cooler is this? Dimensions?[B] Only had one fender cooler before we installed the front. Dimensions....I don't recall (car sold) but it was a pretty standard Setrab size as I recall.
