The only catch is that you need to cut two small openings in the wheel wells for the hot air to exit. I have seen this on a V8 conversion that kept the engine temps down very nicely.
As for the ecu, my first attempt will be using a stock ecu. I'll need to pick up an OBDI to match my '92 engine and start playing with the wires. I think the stock Suby ecu would be better than trying to using a stand-alone system.

What about a cowl or a slightly raised hood center or just removing some of the weather stripping in the back of the area? I knew aa Impalla '94 pulled the strip and dropped under hood temps 20 degrees or so at the track.
