Is the reason for the tank, putting that weight further back and lower, or is their something else you are thinking of.  Can you duct or direct the air coming threw the radiator say for the intake air?

Good thoughts Charlie.  The rule book says that the radiator must be the same size as the original (or larger).  Also there is to be no blocking of air flow allowed before or after the radiator.  Guys used to try to get by the blocked radiator rule by blocking behind the radiator, but no longer.

It only needs a radiator, or it needs an original radiator? Maybe you can find some aerodynamic advantage by finding a small radiator to mount with a sheet of aluminum to help seal off the grill?

All pickup classes require a radiator in their original location, but not required to be used.  The gas tank will be mounted in it's original location and be the only source of water for engine cooling.

Charlie, is this instead of a radiator or added colling? Where is it mounted?

Converting the stock gas tank into a water reservoir for engine cooling.

Could you just dump the letters in favor of a Blue Oval?

Just the letters "FORD" would cause some interesting side effects......
