The 3 core radiator should keep you cool. You said you have the air dam in place, but is all the nose radiator shrouding in place too? It was meant to direct airflow through the radiator.

If you're on the compression stroke both valves will be closed on the cam base circle and if you can put a finger in #1, then as you approach TDC you'll feel a rush of air past your finger.

Re: Audio tuning
You can also tune your system by reversing polarity on a certain speaker to tone down harshness or a certain tone. For example if a tweeter is too bold, you can reverse the polarity to tone it down.
