When you say going to the track are you saying drag or road? A radiator upgrade will help with daily driver and road track cooling. Won’t really be of much benefit on a drag strip. That said, if you...

Well everyone has their tastes. Nothing wrong with that. While I really like the look I bought them for track duty more than looks. Hoping to see a big improvement in performance this summer.

Agreed on line size. I started with 1 ⅞" primaries but wrapped them in DEI titanium wrap. Had to rewrap one collector recently as some strategic speed bumps shredded them a bit.
