I would probably say no. If there is no bellpan you want to direct air over the car versus under it. A larger radius would direct more air under the car.
To answer LostCause, I am planning on making wheel splitters after the bellypan is on the vehicle. Not exactly sure how I'll be doing that all just yet, but thanks for bringing it up.
The stagnation point is very interesting. I guess I hadn't thought about it that way. If its brought up to the the opening for the radiator, the opening can be smaller and thus improve overall aerodynamics.
I guess I really need to read more Hucho. I haven't gotten to the cooling system section yet.
