Mo, nice piece of work! That looks like it's always been there, very clean and blends right in.

What to do.. If you put any holes for cup holders, shifters or anything in the tunnel make sure they are sealed off best you can to the cab. A lot of warm or cold air can blow in thru pretty small openings. Something you can do.. is make a fresh air vent for the passenger side. Being a 2nd gen you are pretty close to having what you may need for air flow to the rad anyway but a little more sure couldn't hurt.

With my 350/200r4 combo I haven't had any cooling problems...of course I got that big Lincoln electric fan that moves air like mad.
