Two cuts on a bandsaw per foglight shroud, then the ZO6 screens on the front.

Not sure exactly how much I can thank the foglight holes but last week it got up to 95 degrees and I never had coolant temps above 202 or oil above 210 and as soon as I got above 40mph the coolant dropped to 190 in a matter of a few minutes. The holes in the LP inset and foglights make a huge difference on the lame Stage 1 Procharger cooling.

Don't forget tahat you can remove the plate areas from the inside if you are hesitant to operate. I did the drill thing with 1 1/2" hole saw initially. It looked pretty good but I replaced them later with the Vararam set up.

I have a set of modified bezels for sale in the parts section. Installed a Vararam and no longer need them.
