Gauging Interest: GT Oil-cooler Fan support Options

[RiqueMar]

Hi All,

I've received several messages and seems there is some interest in a recent fan/shroud support I created for my 3.6 project. Sending this thread out to gauge interest in producing a run of these, photos of the prototype below (shown in ABS)....

Generalities:
- 16 gauge steel, easily customizable for each build, and allows the 'garage builder' to weld
- Added 1" on top and bottom. The user/myself can either bend the top and bottom to be used as an additional air-direct for pusher/puller fans, or as a support for aluminum/fiberglass shroud OR the excess can be trimmed to more accurately reflect the below photo.
- In production now, 1-2 week to delivery
- Targeting 'initial run' price of $120 per piece, will increase.

It would be nice if you opened up the “air” exit on the bottom floor of the trunk. The louver slot openings are tiny. The exit side should be twice the size of of the opening, less pressure more flow.

In fact, I bent the floor sheet metal down on the leading edge of the air exit to help suck out the air creating a suction. Its the same theory as the little plastic flappers on the bottom of the car at the engine bay..!
