    do the shroud thing

    Its a must no matter what else you may choose to do. The alum rad and pusher will certianly help a lot , but the shroud is a must, kinda a first step..

    Usually you will see some goo at the top of the dipstick just above the oil on it.Also under the oil fill cap.But If the car is running 180 190 you wont have moisture.Its generally only a problem on cars that dont get up to operating temp.IE: short trips and high humidity.
