[QUOTE="mu22stang, post: 10966437, member: 81298"] Here's a couple of radiator boxing threads. There's more than one way to skin a cat. Break out the tools and tear into it. The bumper cover is easy to remove and seeing it with your own eyes will help give you a better idea of the project's scope. [URL="http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/engine-tuning-214/765568-boxing-radiator-heat-exchanger.html"]http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/engine-tuning-214/765568-boxing-radiator-heat-exchanger.html[/URL] [URL="http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/open-track-racing-203/332482-boxing-radiator.html"]http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/open-track-racing-203/332482-boxing-radiator.html[/URL] As far as brake cooling, I suggest removing the fog lamps and using these gigantic (5" ?) holes for brake cooling - assuming you have a Cobra bumper cover. You'll see once you tear into the project that the "box" for the radiator will be well inboard from the typical entrance for brake cooling (fog lamp holes). So, there's shouldn't be a need for holes in the box. Fashion a 5"-to-3" reducer to a standard 3" cooling duct and finally to a brake backing plate.
