thats why I cut out the front grill area and did the big gulp mod

They aren't in front of the radiator? You ever look at a stock F body? Theres a plastic shroud covering the whole radiator, so the airdam can push air up into the radiator.
you said that you sealed up the front part when the air comes in the bumper holes but it looks like you did not seal up where the air used to come in the stock location, in front of the lid...hope you did...hard to see from the angle of the picture

, so you get the maximum air into the engine, make it a sealed box, use some weather stripping, how in the intake box going to see the small but still there 0.25psi when you are a tthe traps with the air box not sealed, https://ls1tech.com/forums/attachmen...chmentid=58494

From what i remember its 16"x8" two 4" holes, i belive the holes are each 1.5" from the front and each 3" from the edges.
Oh and from underneath the "lip" on the holes is 1.25" deep.

I think it is a great mod if you pick up HP at 90+ mph!! That could easily cot off a tenth or 2, and tack on a few extra MPH. Not only the "ram" effect at HIGH speeds, but you can not argue against the fact that it pulls in cold air
