I think that much less drag is good for +10rwhp right?

use some jb weld adhesive or something. and instead of using pliers to cut the pieces off i would use a hacksaw instead so you dont deform the metal or anything from squeezing to cut.

I did mine and may shorten it some more. No loss in reception. But I listen mostly to Sirius and CD's

For deleting the antenna, the best thing to use comes out of the late model t-bird. They had an amplified antenna mounted in the rear quarter panel.
