After buying several thousand $$$$ of parts from Eckler's, I decided to read their tech tips. They pointed out that the front spoiler is not just for looks, but contributes to proper airflow to the radiator. My 68 BB is running hotter than I believe it should and PO Bubba removed the spoiler. So- yet another parts order to Eckler's. We'll see if it helps. RA

You might want to consider checking out Willcox Corvette. They are a supporting vendor and give discounts to forum members. I buy from them often and find their customer service excellent.

sullyman56- Thanks. I have also ordered from them and a bunch of other places. I actually started a spreadsheet for time, cost and issues on this project car now instead of having to retrospectively add stuff to the list like I have done for other projects. Eckler's has a significant number of entries so far. RA
It will certainly help. C3's are bottom feeders for cooling, and that's an important part of it along with the seals around the radiator etc. Once I got these all in place the car ran between 10 and 25 degrees cooler depending on our speed.
