i was at crazy n8's house the other day. he hasn't been working on the body so much....more engine than anything.....and can i tell you it is slightly impressive. I think a lot of people are going to be blown away by his car when he gets it done.......

 

I'll tell my story for what it's worth. Ever since I bought my 87 camaro I had cooling problems, mostly related to the electric radiator fan. The temp sensor failed, then the relay burned out. This caused me to go through a couple fan motors. Over the years I kept having cooling problem, especially after installing my big cam, big head engine. I removed the air conditioning components, including the AC condensor which allowed more air flow through the radiator. I also set up the radiator fan motor on a dash mounted toggle switch. I had to watch engine temp closely. Not the best situation, but the car was not a daily driver and it got me by the next few years. Last year I was looking for parts at the junk yard and came across an 82 or 83 firebird. This car came with a belt driven fan. I had thought all third gens came with electric fans. The radiator shroud went home with me that day, along that car's non AC heater box. I installed the parts with an aftermarket lightweight flex fan. Now cooling problems are GONE. The belt driven fan gives all the cooling air flow I could ever need. Granted one advantage is that I have a manual transmission, meaning no trans cooler.

This is my long winded way of saying there are other ways of getting more air flow without creating special air ducting. My solution may not be for you if you are not a belt driven, 4 barrel, no AC, automatic power nothing, guy like me. TPI guys go ahead and build your air dams. If you're like me, search the junkyard for an early third gen car to pull parts from.

any pictures of the front mounted?

 

Those holes look like crap, but the rest of it looks good. You should have left that area flat and just mounted your license plate there. I don't know how you laid them out, but they don't look uniform at all.

anyone has any other pictures of modified bumpers? I think my IC would like some more air.

No one who has a modified TA-84 front and steers the air to the radiator?
