Wonder how my idea would fly. I wanted to start a little higher than the attachment shows at the point were you say the boundry layer seperates on the rear window and come back from there just above the back edge of the trunk on back about 4 ft with a gentle taper ending with a small kammback about three feet wide and maybe a foot tall. I also was wondering how a grill block would effect the front flow. I've blocked all of the central grills except for the bottom most opening to help with early warmups. Blocking the additional bottom one didn't seem to help warmups and I didn't want to risk overheating on a hot day.
