On the aerocivic, I have a slot at the back of the front wheel well skirts that exhausts air out along the sides of the car. The only added temperature instrumentation is an LED that tells me when the radiator fan is running. Have gone through six years of South Carolina summers with air temps over 100F without any overheating problems since I added the second radiator air inlet to the nosepiece. When I had only one radiator air inlet I used to have some overheating problems when travelling at 70+mph on the interstates in hillly locations, but the second inlet cured this problem.
