That's where I got mine. Turnbuckles are used for all kinds of things like reinforcing gates and so on. They're made in different sizes, and out of steel and aluminum.

The brake duct square-to-round, and the opening of the radiator (top height) was all custom work.

The old way, was a lot of duct tape... (and looked like %$#@)

Simple 4" radiator hose clamp onto the Saleen airdam, ditto on the brake backing plate.

My question was how did you attach the brake ducts onto the Saleen airdam? Or did yours come with them?

Post #46 states custom Saleen airdam work to convert square-hole to round-hole to fit brake hose onto.
