Those of you without A/C, is there a part that seals the air in, now that the condenser is gone? I guess there were some LS1's from the factory without A/C so there should be a part? Anybody know? Car was running a bit hot at Summit Point now that the A/C is gone, but it was also 100F in the shade! Need to keep making my aluminum baffle or buy a factory part before 3 days at the Glen next week.
I'm sure other's have removed the A/C on their LS1's.....where are you guys? Have you done anything? |

I took a simple approach and just stuffed some foam into the gap on both sides. I got the foam at Home Depot for something like $10 and it's worked great ever since. Now that I have my oil cooler lines coming through the gap also it makes it even easier to seal around them instead of using an aluminum plate.
