I've got the hole saw ready to go. Not sure what I'm going to do about the coolant leaks?

I'm thinking leaning the radiator back is definitely the go. I hadn't built my upper mounts as I was still deciding which way to go. there is certainly no shortage of room behind the radiator to lean it back.

with the intake tube running straight over the top of the radiator and into the grill opening area there should be quite a bit of positive air pressure at speed. Might even get a ram air effect out of it. Also since the throttle body is on the front of the manifold it will be a very straight shot from the air cleaner to the manifold. I'll make sure there is some heat shielding between the top of the radiator and the intake pipe.

Good news on the interior Phil!

Cheers
