Still a couple weeks away before the chassis shop can work on my car so I decided to polish my blower.
I also ordered a Dallas Performance f1x 10 rib billet bracket and their 4.5" big mouth filter. I'll need a 2" cut down radiator for it to fit. Only problem is I don't want to spend $1,000 on a new radiator and fan setup. While I'm waiting for my parts to arrive. I decided to lower my radiator myself. I took out the radiator support. Cut off the brackets and lowered them approximately 1 1/4" down and 3/8" forward. I also have ECS radiator support 1" spacers. I also trimmed the rubber bushings 5/16". After finishing I can't believe how much it lowered the radiator.

After:
After I took this picture I grinded the bushing down to make it level.
With more adjusting I believe I can drop it down another 1/2".
You can see where the top bracket use to be. Im definitely at least 2 1/2" lower.
