Great for those guy's with the stock air box.
Gives it a complete look. Which it was until GM deleted it. :)

I just installed the rad cover. For those of us who are keeping it stock it really finishes off the engine compartment.

Once again Paul delivers...from Australia to New York in 4 days,

I'm guessing this can still be used if i get a rotofab in the future?

No I wouldn't recommend you get one if you plan on going to a Rotofab intake pipe.

1) It will leave an unsightly gap between the square cut-out section and the radius of the new 90 degree Rotoelbow.
Similar to this:

2) The cover will not sit down due to the new Rotofence

Here's another couple of pics which show what the cover is designed to tidy up.

I'm looking at doing a bulk shipment of these into USA, with distribution from a central point. Hoping to get price down to around US$90. I've started a new thread to determine the numbers to base figures around for the first trial late this month.

A week ago it wasn't a possibility.
Still might not even happen.

How with this part work in conjunction with the Vararam OTR ram air intake?

You can check measurements against this drawing to see how it will fit with any intake.

One thing.....any intake which requires laying back of the radiator, makes it so the cap for the radiator is no longer directly underneath the cutout hole for the radiator cap.
