Thanks guys. The AC radiator is mounted pretty low and I'm still getting cold air, so I'm good so far. I just looked in my Haynes manual and it says the thermostat opens at 170 and is fully open at 194. I guess I'm technically ok until I hit the 190's and don't get cold air, but I still wonder about losing because of the fan. I can't seem to find what temperature the fan clutch is supposed to activate. The intake air is routed from the driver side fender (seems odd to me) but I'll keep an eye on the IA with the scangauge.

Maybe I'll run a tank without the grill block and see what happens. It seemed to help when the weather was cooler. Hard to compare with AC and changing weather conditions.
