Ya, 100 sounds pretty damned high unless he had Mr Fusion under the lid.

As far as the design of the hood in the pic, I am just interested in the center flow, not so much the gills over the strut towers. That is bordering rice/too busy for me. That central section could be fitted to work within the confines of the insert and you can either cut your hood for some functionality or keep as is for looks. Of course, suggestions would also include some sort of meshing to keep debris out of the bay.

Just saying.... I have an extra insert and have been looking for that style of fixture to attempt fabbing on my own, but crap-for-all is online, and when you find what you want, it's C/F. It's been a lose/lose so far.
