Cool

So it is still a bottom breather to cool the radiator.

Splitters are mounted differently.

Mine is a front breather, but then I only have 2 1/2" of ground clearance too

Thanks Pat. I have had the radio bezel off before to install my XM radio so that is not a big deal. The gauge cluster will take a little more time because of the gauge face change and the trim rings, but I do have a write up on my laptop that is step by step with pictures so I will have that in the garage with me. You are more then welcome to stop by and and have a cold one or a soda.

Good job on the install. I noticed you removed it for the Vettes on the Pier show.
Your car always looks amazing!
Hey Jack, how about we do the gauge cluster over the Holidays?

What holidays are you referring too? This coming week, or around Christmas.

You are correct, I did remove it for the pier show, because I was not to sure if I could back up on the ramps to park without dragging it so I want to be safe and not sorry. It only takes abut 15 minutes to remove it and the same to reinstall it so it was not a big deal.
