GEN 2 Long term FMIC owners?

Yeah pretty sure they do that to limit something going through the radiator up front and ending your race.

I know they do. But a truck cab would seem to limit airflow to a radiator more than a FMIC was the point I am making. Not protecting it from rocks or sticks.

Well what about the 2 massive high speed electric fans?

Is there not a big fan behind the radiator in the factory position? It would still pull adequate air through the FMIC.

I guess somewhat but when its blocked by the first radiator I'm guessing the strength of the suction would be greatly diminished by the first rad… Im not disagreeing with anyone i just want to get to the bottom of this … being that the front mount and the stock are within a certain $$$ i also want to know the best bang for the buck….

Depends on your use of the truck. Also if you want a frame cut bumper or leaving it stock.

This thread has really run its course. There are thousands of gen2/3 raptors running around with fmics without issue including me. not sure what science you want as you have lots of real world use to go on.

Here you go, sizing an air cooled heat exchanger. Colder air is better
