From what ive read after seeing this thread bar and plate does a better job (35% keeps getting used) of cooling the air....regarding every other aspect, i.e flow rates, pressure drop, keep getting conflicting stories...

Anyone enlightened care to fill me in?

Haha, this is a good deal, but I just found out my rear main seal is bad! So my money is going there. Jason is going to have to sell me a Exedy hyper single instead. LOL!

Yes, you have to move the battery.

Jason or anybody who's gotten this, any chance you could get a tape measure and measure this for me?

Here's a few pics of my install. Like almost everyone else that has ever installed Greddy FMICs, I had to fab up my own radiator brackets, which wasn't hard at all.
