Well ducting is done. Like I said, kinda ghetto( I hate sub-par shit on my FC) BUT hopefully will be functional. I would have like to do it with rivets and spot welded a couple of the brackets but I work with what I have.

All the screws are secured on the backside with a retaining bead of clear RTV and all the corners are sealed with weather stripping foam. The front and rear of the duct has about 1.5'' of foam so when it is bolted it is very air tight and compressed. Along the sides was a little more difficult. Some small areas for a little air loss BUT NOT MUCH.

I hope my oil cooler line doesn't get too hot on the foam

All in all I am pleased and wil be much happier once I see some temps drop, Lets hope for a high 80* F day tomorrow so I can test compared to last week.
