That ideal isn't practical, but I was planning on sealing the sides of the block right to the radiator. the top part of the grill isn't sealed straight to the radiator, but curves.
But it is still ideal, wouldn't you agree. You're the best judge of your fabrication skills.

the cavity starts the full size of the grill then is reduced by shrouds. I would block the grill down to the size of the radiator, maybe a little smaller, and shroud it straight to the grill. thoughts?
Thoughts? Get a Toyota Previa:

The total opening (just the perforations) only needs to be 1/6th the size of the radiator itself. But once again: vena contracta. You want a bellmouth.
