The original alarm isn't going to stop a pro. If you want a real alarm you'll need a modern aftermarket one. Fill the hole in and get rid of all other the badges.

I used a fan from a '91 Lumina APV. It is about 16" and covers about 2/3 of the radiator with it's shroud. The L48 never needs the fan to be cool anyways.
