BINGO! If you create an entrance, you also need to create an exit. I have the two larger scoops cut out, five large holes on the small vertical section behind the windows and the majority of the rear vertical section of the body removed. Temps of my LRP 8.5 geared 21/81 after 5 minutes is 150-152 and the R10 is only warm to the touch.
