In planning the belly pan, leave clearance for that air all the way back. It will be a sudden thickening of the boundary layer.
So similar to the air dam that Rokeby posted? The car is going to be low to the ground in the front, perhaps 6" or less, will that have an impact? Would giving the truck a forward rake of about 6" help or be a good enough substitute?
