Get some tin and cut it to shape, or cut the radiator grill out and weld a panel in.

unless you're running a dedicated front mount radiator you'll need the grill there :wink:

it gives the air through your radiator somewhere to go

i wouldn't be worrying about that now, wait until your well into it before you start worring about stuff like that..

cut it away get the motor in and weld a new panel around it to the shape required. Then remove motor and paint everything and put the motor back in
