Retired Again!
Been doing research -- should have been working on the suspension -- but waiting for parts.
Considering a Radiator Relocation and Laydown like this:

The image is from here on the Vetemod -- but can't find a pic with the hood on the front end. I like the sheetmetal cowling - indifferent about the hose (but whats the hood like?)!
Anything like this to exhaust the air from below the front end?

The Mako's had/have a radiator in "normal"C3 configuration -- ie, tilted top aft, but that exhaust looks pretty sweet. Combined with the cowling and fan -- nearly a Chaparral 2E - Vacuum Cleaneer! (well not really - but you get the idea)

So, anybody got a pic - or idea on this proposed mod?

The sheetmetal appears to work with something as in your picture or an L-88 style hood with the front of the air box notch cut out. This would allow the air to flow through the radiator and up over the hood. TT must have the dope on this application.
 
The sheet metal works with an extractor style hood like on the GT40s and current GT.
