air dam ('93 Oldsmobile Silouette)

[arcosine]

I made an air dam for the van last night. It's made from cheap $5 edging from menards.



I slit the tube at 270 degrees and stuck it over the edge of the plastic bumper cover. I used cable ties to lace it on.

Nice mounting strategy

Wondered if you've done road trips 'n the Silouette,and have mpgs for that.
She's similar to the Pontiac Trans Sport (Cd 0.30) and it would be nice to know what they'll do.
The buying public punished General Motors with low sales numbers for their visionary minivan.Shame!
I still enjoy seeing a few on the road.

Those things go forever. Looking forward to results.

I used to have a '92 Silouette and I got 24+ mpg at about 75-80 mph if I remember right. Chumly

The CD is actually .34, the .3 was advertisement that rounded down, I drove it on a trip in December and it got 24-25. I'll try to get numbers on the trip this July. The van isn't too bad once you get use to the giant windshield. It has the 3.8 90 degree v6. It would be nice if the cg were lower, there really no reason for it being as tall as it is except to make it seem like a van.
