I load by ladder or I stand on my tires, they stick out enough for a good step.

Haha RJ, I know what the Diablo Predator is, you forgot your comma in between predator and high ram intake behind the grille and I thought you had a Diablosport brand intake or something. I see you have the MAC Cold Air Intake. Do you have any pictures of it in your engine bay? I figure a CAI is the way to go to get away from that engine heat.

It's basically a little 3x6 vent that cuts into the front by the radiator going to the filter. I really don't notice any difference but I am sure it floods the engine bay with fresh air. Predator sent it to me with my programmer, no charge, and I have no idea why but I will use it!! They claim like 100cfm at 60 mph and lower egt's and up to 1 mile per gallon gain. Not to sure but what the heck- Thanks on the wedding edub32

LOL, WTH why didn't I get the Diablo Ram Air Vent..?!!! Anyone else get one of those. PowerstrokedLariat, now that you told me about it I really want one now. It seems like a great idea and would really help cool up the engine bay.

I emailed Predator and asked if they would send me some fender badges so I could show off the Predator and they sent me several windshield banners and this "AirFury" vent- It claims up to an 80 degreee reduction in EGT's, try emailing them
