I'm curious... aren't your side panel scoops functional?.. the reason I ask is that I have modded side scoops (both sides of the car) and I mounted a B&M oil cooler with a temperature controlled fan sitting on the passenger side under the battery box in the well area. 8x8 x1-1/2 with fan inches deep, I think. fit like a glove with some little space left over.. the oil filter may fit as well... it works so well!.. why the trunk?.. I had to fab a bracket but no big deal.. |

I agree, the side scoops are perfect places to put an oil cooler. And if your battery is relocated up front, it opens up a perfect place for an oil cooler or intercooler, as well.
That said, I'm interested in seeing how Rei decides to mount his oil cooler.

Well I'm saving the side scoops for something else but the oil cooler will be replaced with a bigger unit that will have its own fan. The trunk part will be an open space and a rear diffuser will take its place.
I'm working on making the entire underside of the car flat bottomed. And the side scoops along with two big NACA ducts in the under plate will be responsible for bringing cool air to the engine compartment.

I actually made them.. sorry.... and they were FREE!.... we'll sort of.. minus my time and fiberglass stuff on top of the original starter panel scoops-- cost way back..around- a little under $400with shipping, I think. -- they're not available to buy anymore that I know of.. at least as a production run. I think the original molds are in Germany somewhere.. before that, was Australia --- AUS Stage II Scoops)
There was a lot of fab work for me.. originally, I had the stage II scoops .. then due to friends having them also, but with the door trim that went with it as a kit.. I wanted to go into a different direction to be original. I refiberglassed the mold to follow the lines of the original GT trim..... then made the scoops to insert..
I don't want to jack this thread though..
I'm really interested in La Fiera's 3.4L hittin 250hp![This message has been edited by unboundmo (edited 12-01-2017).]

The 88's were pretty well equipted with shields and wraps.. I've re wrapped the harness when I had the engine out once before... although, around the exhaust piping (topside), the 88 came with this NASA molded/spot weld/ ugly thing.. I changed it out to have the 87 heat shields. I don't have the blower, though, for the coil so I've taken other percautions to help with that. The lower shield under the firewall side exhaust manifold is stock 88... ...and I "have" to say it's a 2.8L... Cali laws ๐
