Well, I removed the foam from the top grill and the trip home was a success, it maintained it's normal old max of about 92 bouncing back to 90, and seemed to warm up faster, of course I did no scientific tests before hand so it's probably just in my head - but I'm okay with that as long as I FEEL warmer!

I'll probably leave it as is and keep an eye on temps, I may switch it around or try to make it more flush but I was more interested in the faster warmup than the FE gains, of course those are always good too so we'll see..

Thanks for the help.
