And there lies the problem. The countach's is shrouded by the front end and lower spoiler. There is no lower airdam like on the fiero to direct air up to the radiator. See the pics below.



I can install some air ducting that directs air from the outer openings, install a 3 row radiator and dual fans. As long as I don't use the a/c, the fiero 2 row keeps the temps around 200º. with a/c in the hot summer temps, it climbs to 220º. While the car isn't technically overheating, I do like a little extra headroom. At some point down the road there will be a V8 engine swap and these mods will only help.
