Another interesting note on Als web site is the changing airflow depending
on attitude. It would be nice to have an on-dash reading of the airspeed
difference either side of the rad. This way you can adjust the attitude for
best cooling if needed.

This could be done without much expenses. Put a steel bearing in a piece of plexiglass tube that you bend just slightly.  Run a couple of 1/4" tubes, one to each side of the rad, and two each end of the plexiglass.  Mount to panel so the plexiglass forms a U.  The ball will roll with the wind.
