I personally think the truck would look nicer without them, but how much would I be affecting the cooling of the engine if I covered them?

The ones at the very bottom of the grille opening ? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 127 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 127 | Yes, it's a 57 Chevy 6400.
