[QUOTE="D Potts, post: 841965, member: 66285"] Added a little more to the Fender Vents mod... Cut out the inside of the engine bay to let teh air flow....found out that the fender is actually 3 parts...The engine bay skin....the inner skin and the outer fender which everyone sees. I cut an oval to allow flow from the filter side of the intake and also to allow flow from the engine bay side of the heat shield. Then realized I woudl have to cut the inner skin to allow the flow to go through to the actual fender vents on the exterior.....so I decided to drill 3 2" holes to allow that flow! It seems to work great...of course it is hard to test, but I DID take a hi powered drive to hea tthings up: The area on the filter side was 112 degrees...the engine bay side was 145 degrees!!! NICE!!! [b][Broken External Image][/b]: [b][Broken External Image][/b]: [/QUOTE]
