Also the 90s era air dam fits the contours perfect.

The render I posted is intended to look like the Spoilers by Randy piece. One issue though with his spoilers is that they are made out of like 20ga steel so they end up being the most fragile piece of body work in the worst location and they are not the cheapest piece in the world. It is still what I plan to use but I also realize that I probably need to have a couple replacements on hand and treat it like a potentially consumable part.

Like I said earlier the late '80s, early '90s era 454 SS airdam does look great behind a bumper but not against an roll pan. If you have both pieces in hand there is no way to make these two look good together. I was sure that was what I was going to use for mine, even the original render I did used one:



Here is the actual piece test fit before the body came off the frame:



But once I had the rollpan in hand there was no way it was going to work.

I like the big lights man!
I would look at cutting some spots for them in the roll pan. They are really going to block up the air flow into the engine bay don't you think to the radiator. Just a thought

Actually on mine that is why a spoiler is all that much more important to get that ground air into the radiator. Most modern cars have very little frontal grill area and get all their radiator air from below the "bumper". My truck is also going to have Trans Am fender extractors and a cowl hood so that the area behind the radiator doesn't become a high pressure area. I am also planning on a big ol' custom Ron Davis radiator with two 16" high flow fans for a 4.2 liter aluminum straight 6.

In the end the chin spoiler will actually work out better for me than the originally planned airdam anyway, with the airdam I would have had to try and draw air through the punched ports in the roll pan where with the chin spoiler I can scoop air behind the roll pan. I also plan on making a duct to block off the space between the frame rails and direct the air up to the core support. No matter how you look at it I don't think cooling is going to be an issue.

Ok then it sounds like you have the right plan! Got any more progress pictures of it?

There is lots of pics of it all in my build thread "Madera" in my signature. The chassis is at Porterbuilt in Arizona right now, so progress will start up again once it comes back.

I'm in awe! That is some build thread man! Dang I wouldn't even want to think about what kind of money you have in that build.
