Quick update on the cooling issues… I opened two more holes in my bumper next to the Nissan emblem and went for a drive. At 5000ft up a 10 mile hill at highway speeds my coolant temp topped out at 109c. It was just below 100 degrees outside so I’m sure that didn’t help. Once I got to the top of the hill and started cruising down the other side temps dropped back down to around 94c. I know that’s a pretty extreme example with the thin air and all but it also convinced me to purchase a vented hood.
