I definitely need to proof read my replies before I post. what I posted read like a 3rd grader was writing it. As for the Vintage Air I really can't say about the milage drop. It was already installed when I purchased my truck but I can tell you while idling when stopped for any length of time it would start to get hot. My truck did NOT have a fan shroud in it. I opted for a Lincoln Mark VIII electric cooling fan tripped by a Volvo fan relay - all purchased on 1/2 off day at Pick N Pull. I'm running a 160 thermostat and need to go to 180 it's actually running cooler than I want - IF my factory gauge is reading correctly that is.
