Yeah, it was a Genedad mod not Grenedad. It was a funnel in front of the zoodad, and I think it was Tenn Mike messing around one night wit what looked like a plastic birdbath or something and he took some pictures. It was funny.

Well,I think it was Ernest that come up with something involving removing the rubber flap at the top,I guess using some flat stock to make some brackets to lean the A/C condensor out some would lower the EGTs a little by reducing the heat soak,by getting it a little farther away from the condensor.

You may be right Phil. I just remember Mike messing around with this huge funnel looking thing and calling it a genedad. I certainly could be remembering it wrong. I get hit in the head a lot.

I think what you are talking about is the genedad2. He removed the top grill seal and I think one of the side seals.

If you are talking about these 2, then I would hope you are joking; they absolutely hilarious...
