You could use the stock vents for the intake and duct it out the bottom of the 1/4 panel. Under the bumper bracket perhaps?

That's why I was wondering if the engine could draw enough air from one side only. BTW the 911 did in some years use an electric fan on the oil cooler in the front fender. I have the fan motor and blade from one at home... Scott _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
