temp grill block picture

here is my temp grill block, its made of some old seat upholstery i had, it has been on for about 2 tank fulls, and has only made a small difference ,as soon as i run another 3 or 4 tank fulls thru i should have some numbers, it makes the car warm up faster, and run a little hotter in traffic, but only a few degrees, it never goes above 195. but it is winter (sort of ) here in Fla it dos'nt stay cold for long.I will post photos of each stage of my belly pan and decklid after someone gives me a drawing or photo of something that will work on my 2002 echo 2 door sedan, it will take me forever if i have to figure the design my self, i am willing to remove the rear bumper panel and start the upward slope of the rear end sooner, i might even cut my trunk pan and raise my fuel tank if it will aid the design,, by allowing the upward sweep i think is needed at the rear. what im not willing to do is a 5 foot long boat tail, i drive around 700 miles a week mixed city but mostly highway and that extra length would make it to tough to manuver in parking lots and such. id like to keep what ever is put on the rear around 3 feet or less if possible, but im open to ideas, sorry for the poor picture quality ,ill get a computer guy to teach me how to do it right before i post my bellypan job.
