I installed the Saleen grill, and used it the first time last weekend at BIR.
It was a cool weekend, 50-65 degrees, so not a good test.
But on 30 minute sessions, I was only getting 215-220 deg CHT.
And, I generally shift at 6,500 rpm, so that helps keep temps down too.

Cool. What CHT do you see otherwise?
I have my eye on the Saleen as well...

PS anyone able to find 5.0 Roadrunner badges for the Saleen? I see 5.0 Coyote all over ebay, but no Roadrunner :(

I think with the stock grill last year I was hitting 230-235, but on hotter days too.

A couple years ago, I saw a place that made Saleen grill custom badges, but no idea where it was.

I saw one on boss302forum and I believe the guy said he had the plate section cut out to say 5.0 something. Could always dremel it out.
