    i put one on mine, it does give it a clean look but alot of work for little to no gain.

    i had the harwood ram air hood, and went with a ls1 radiator support. had to cut and hack it up alot just to get the hood to shut.

    Running a lid here as well. I wound up with a noticeable improvement in throttle response that was well worth the effort. Granted, I didn't think it took much to install. I did not have AC (no condenser) so I could move the radiator all the way forward before leaving back. Plenty of room in front of the water pump. Also, I opted not to use the LS1 radiator support. Instead, I notched the core support to set the filter down in to. The lid then sat flush on the core support and fit fine under my VFN hood.

    I was running a stock, angled radiator to begin with. Here's a shot of the notch after switching to a vertical setup.
