I'm in the process of installing air conditioning and will be adding a fan shroud. Hopefully that will be up and running this weekend and we'll see how well it does then.
ok champion , what core configuration is yours 2 , 1 inch cores maybe ? there seems to be several options in the cores , what you have must be doing really well , at 110 with my air off , mine would be boiling in traffic along with myself
