Initially no, i was just going to block the grill with something easily removable just to see how much i will gain. its relatively cool in houston tx right now, and im going to be testing my grill block on a road trip this week. If gains are significant enough then like you suggested i will have to think of a way to regulate or allow more airflow to the radiator when temps reach into the 90-100's. I was thinking if i split the block into two places and make different mounting points i could open a close the hole depending on how much airflow is need, kind of like a sliding glass door. any thoughts?
