Nice glad someone has actually done this....seems to be the best packaging solution. Were you able to incorporate the intake right in the existing side vent rubber plastic duct for an ultra OEM look? You would also get a boost effect with the fan when it runs. Don't know how the heck you mounted the heat xcr though...my imagination / vis skills can't picture that...I would guess an edge is facing up..so get air flow. Do you have a manual fan switch?
I take it that cooling the trans take care of everything else including engine oil. Any data?
Pictures would be much appreciated!
