Garfinkle removes them for his customers .somewill argue it makes more air go to the radiator, some will just argue. there are sq headed bolts to loosen and the part will slide out

The story I heard is that Garfinkle is a pretty good rotary mechanic and machinist located just outside of Nashville, TN. Aparently he is not very computer savy so this duboisr makes all of his posts for him.
