Billet Grille?
I have a '91 f150 with a 302. I was thinking about getting a billet grille but had a few questions. First of all, does it restrict airflow into the radiator compared to the stock grille? Lastly, to open the hood, you have to pull the lever in the cab but then push on the lever under the hood to pop it up. This lever under the hood is located in between two of the plastic pieces of the grille and i thought that this would probably be blocked off if i got a billet grille. Any ideas? Thanks.

It will give you the same amount of air flow if not more depending on what type of billet grill you purchase.
They should also include a extension for that latch your questioning. At least on mine they did.

I found it on eBay. It isn't the honey comb grille it is the bar type. There are links to that sellers auction in the appearance & dress-up forum under the thread title grill?

You can find them on Ebay. I think truckperformance.com or summitracing.com carries them as well. They should come with a extension of some sort or you can just use a screwdriver to push the lever over when you want to pop the hood.
