I also moved my horns - to allow more air through the reduced opening that's I've built for fuel economy purposes. But then I don't drive in FL!
Anyway, you should check to see if you have your lower air scoop baffle, located behind the air dam. It helps cooling by blowing additional air on the a/c condenser and radiator.
I don't know what it's properly called but we had (3) 240s at one time and none of them had that scoop. If I hadn't been snooping around the junkers at a local shop I'd never have learned about it.
Air dam has three oval openings near the center. Behind the openings there's a black plastic baffle that catches the air coming through the openings and directs it up behind the bumper to the radiator. Has tabs that rest on the oval hole edges. Rear edge of baffle clips on at lower edge of a/c condenser.
So far as I can tell, it's one size fits all 240s. Maybe different for the very early ones. Check for the four clips at the rear edge by a/c condenser; make sure you have them all. If your car is missing the panel it likely has most or all of the clips.
Add a wire or something to hold it in place just in case the tabs slip off their resting places. Many of those scoops are gone now.
