Mike,
Thanks.  I am in tropical Florida and before I even start the car it  is half 
way to overheating in the summer.  I don't plan on racing but . .  .  As  a 3 
owner I am sure that you realize that of the  17"  of vertical radiator 5" is 
below the crank hole and therefore below the grill  airflow.  I have removed 
the crank hole when I recored and am considering  reshaping the metal shroud 
where the crank support sits in front of the radiator  by sloping it downward 
toward the bottom tank of the radiator and mounting the  oil cooler there 
directly in front of the radiator.  I don't want to cut a  hole below the grill 
as 
the racers do when it is mounted in that position.
