OK, I don't just do those sissy cup holder thingies!
I have seen some aluminum radiator baffles on a few racing healeys and thought I might try it. I don't know if they will really help or not, but they do at least make a seal along the side of the radiator so no air is lost around the radiator.
At Conclave a few years back - I think in Winston-Salem, NC. I noticed that Keith Pennell had made somthing similar to what I had been considering and when I asked, he volunteered to send me some patterns to work from. Thank you Keith!
Anyway, I have had them done for a while and I thought that I would trial fit (again) the aluminum radiator and the baffles today. Of course, it will all come out for the engine install if that day ever comes!
Just thought I would share.
