I have some good hill climbs for 10-15 miles where i'd like to open up the 80% grill block for 100% cooling for safety's sake, Then on the downhills, Close off everything. I found some 50-80 lbs linear actuators from $60-150 depending on condition but a grill block isn't worth that much investment. This was research for a different project though, i'm sure 15-20lbs would be much cheaper.
