Anybody ever vented there header panel? I was thinking about venting it along with the hood, so I could get more flow through my radiator. The vents would be small enough to not eat a bird. Anyone have pics that I could work with? I am doing this for aesthetic purposes as well as functionality. Also I have heard that an electric fan does not flow as much as the clutch fan so I figured that this would help while driving through town. Any thoughts either positive or negative are appreciated and accepted. Thanks

I cut out a nostril in my header panel to feed air to the relocated oil cooler.That along with my hood exhaust vent keeps my water and oil temps under check easily.And thats with my IC blocking the vast majority of the air going into the primary airdam inlet below.
Its very functional.Ive wet the radiator down and watched the steam pour out as I drove.The oil/water temps will plummet above 60mph with all the air pressure flowing through it.Plus it looks clean.

Nice car...

 

Hey gonzz, nice car man. Are you gonna figure out a way to take the stock rear bumper off? Also I cant get the pics to work. Also thanks for the replies

edit: nevermind the pics work now. Sweet idea on the header panle vent. That is alot easier than I was gonna do.

 

Okay, I think steve84 definitely has the most famous car in the first gen forum. Whenever anyone sees it they recognize. That thing is nice man.

 

Gonzz, what kind of tail lights are those on your car?
