I have a love-fab sidewinder turbo mani that would require me to cut the center out of the radiator support so that i can make a downpipe and radiator fit. Now i have no problem fabing this up and making it look nice but i do like to take my car to the track (road) every now and then. so it would see some stress. would it really make a difference in streghth if i cut out the middle of the radiator support top and bottom and replace them with say 1/2 in angle iron so i can mount the radiator? thanks in advance!

 

no one has any insight?
