    No way, I have too much trouble with radiator overflow hose as is, I won't be able to tell the difference between steams!   :P

    Seriously, though.  I know I'm catching purist undertones here and I majorly respect you guys--I'm just looking for a customization here and there to make the 'cuda mine...and yes, I was a fan of the flamethrowers on Snot Rod from the movie Cars...



    But could've done without the neon lights...to each his own I guess.

    Hey, I am messing with you....

    I can't say I would do it, but man she is your ride, and you should be happy with her.

    will be cool to see how things turn out..

    Ditto above. Just want you to know the longer term impact on your engine so you aren't back on here in 18 months asking why you need to overhaul your engine already.

     :cheers:

    No offense taken.  And I appreciate please do tell about any tradeoffs!  I'm sure you guys have noticed, I'm a newbie at car mechanics so I'm really absorbing this stuff like a sponge.  Any indirect implications of work are DEFINITELY valuable to me because in my inexperience I'll generally not predict the downstream effects.
