    I saw it the other day. I don't think that hole will cause any appreciable decrease in airflow through the radiator. If she fixes it, it will only be for aesthetics. I gave her some cladding material that she could use to cover the hole though.

    Are these going to be readily available or built to order? Or, is it just a one-off?

    What's the weight comparison to the OEM or aftermarket equivalent? (I have some GM model since my old one went POP but it's the same really) Anywhere I can shave weight, I am a happy camper.

    Have to agree though, that shroud needs some TLC. Also curious, since the shroud has been slightly relocated, I wonder if this would affect the S/C belt. Highly doubt it, but just thinking out loud.

    Sue thanks for sending this to me, as I am too lazy to search here lol, anyone know temp values before and after this? Anyone else have this radiator? I would love to know a temp number that Sue ran in AZ heat with that new radiator.
