Re: Porsche 944: Actually there is a substitute

There is a lot going on in the radiator sub-project. In most of the pics I have the 944's "nose" removed to aid in design and fab - but when I'm finished I want to be able to remove the fan and radiator from above but without having to take the nose sheet metal off.

In this pic, the larger cross-bar thing is part of the 944's pop-up headlight mechanism (which by the way eats up a lot of real estate). The smaller cross bar is a brace I added to keep the nose area strong (while I removed some other metal to clearance the new radiator). The weird black thing at the top of the pic is the Camaro stock air intake "plenum" which is just that - weirdly shaped. However I have to use it in order to pass smog regs and it looks like it will actually fit!
