Plastic shroud on Right Side of Radiator on 600???
What is the purpose of the plastic shroud on the passenger side of the radiator. It appears to be only on 04.5 or newer trucks. I just installed my BHAF and wonder if it is something I shoud remove or leave alone.

Thanks
John

John...Its there to shield the intake from the warm air of the radiator. That was put there by DC claiming the reduced intake temps for the 600 engine.

I cut a rectangular hole in mine to let air through to get to the Scotty Ram Air III.
