Yea, I was really tempted to run that, but I like how the DSE panel extends into the engine bay and frames the engine. Or more like that is what I'm use to seeing.

and thanks for the compliments.. lots of NICE cars out there these days.

It was nice how Jim at Autorad listened and was open to changes. Other people might have noticed the same things but never gave feedback to the them.

Steve,
That radiator setup looks great as is, I like that better than the DSE closeout.
A separate cooler is good. I like the engine combo, should make tons of torque and weigh nearly the same as before.

Yea, I think the MID sleeves add about 6 pounds. So, almost the same weight.

I like it better as well from a "looks fabbed" standpoint. But I'm use to the DSE part. Also, this one is trickier to remove if I need access to the oil cooler system or other part. This is because some screws go in from the bottom. With my mesh that would be a PITA.

Looks like my initial thought I posted maybe wrong.

Steve,
Your reincarnation thread has been very informative. Your product installations, reasoning for why the change is made and what weighed out in the product selection has been doc. perfectly. But..I wouldn't except anything less coming from you. Great work so far and try not to scratch it during reassembly!
