EOC is Engine Off Coast. When I have a long downhill stretch I'll just kill the engine and then when I need to start it again I'll just pop the clutch in 5th gear.
Pulled my front bumper to remove the license plate mount (no front tag required in NC) and I made a plexiglass insert to cover the inside of the lower grill opening and zip tied it in.
Temps used to run 188 - 198 and now they run 190 - 203, though the radiator fan doesn't even kick on till 225 so the slight increase in temp doesn't even matter, over at yourcobalt.com there are plenty of people in places like Florida and Nevada where there normal coolant temps in the summer run up to 212 so I'm not concerned in the least over the few extra degrees.
The current lower grill block is only temp untill I can get to the junkyard and piece together something a little better looking, longer lasting, and more stock looking.
