I've got a guy who'll rewind alternators to a higher spec for me, and I had figured on doing that eventually. Blocking the radiator would be maddening around here. We don't really have seasons in the Northwest - its more like a daily crap shoot for the weather. 2 springs ago I got a sunburn sleeping in my buddies boat without a shirt - it was probably 85 or so, 6 days later it snowed on us. Either way, WVO isn't really a priority at this point. I figure I'll collect the parts as I come into them.

As far as the air cleaner, I had figured on drilling a hole that I could put a plug in and just feed the hose in when I want it, but I like the permanent nozzle even better!
