2. after driving a while, motor fully warmed up/heater roaring on that same cold day, a shot of the rad from the front (a/c condenser may be a problem) or maybe a shot of each end of the rad

3. lastly, a July/August video in +90* ambient, XJ driven/motor hot, then a video with the motor idling, a/c roaring, a shot of the rad, if possible.

Give a guy an inch and he takes a mile....sorry. It would be interesting to see AND very much appreciated, though. That thermal camera might shed some light on it being worth cutting up a perfectly good to instal hood vents.

I'm still thinking, that in cold weather and running the heater, the video would show a substantial color difference between the 2 ends of the rad....but . In hot weather, the video would show just 1 big blob of red.....fender-2-fender, firewall-2-grille.
