If you post a pic and don't try to openly Sell your product you might be ok.
You can put PM for details or something.

Interest here, I've been contemplating a replacement hood but haven't een anything I really wanted and would rather stay with the stock hood anyway. I'll keep tuned...

Like any mod, there are some growing pains. Tweeking the vent design and size so it does not look too cheezy. Will post photos as soon as possible. In the middle of all this my house decided to flood in the crawl space, so I am dealing with some major home repairs, so it has slowed me down

Done, installed, tested, real world test for 1 month, no water intrusion even during car washing. Just don't know how to post pictures.
Testing showed a 22 degree decrease in under hood temps as compared to stock.

without pics this is sooooo vague. Left to the imagination.... its either really awesome...or really bad.

Post something. Go to advanced click add image and browse to chose where it is on your computer. Then we'll all have a baseline to chime in about....

I'm interested, let's see pictures. I was thinking about doing this on my hood scoop, but I was thinking about all the crap that would be heading for my motor. You'd need to do some kind of mesh or expanded metal to prevent that. Gutter guard is cheap and surprisingly great for stuff like this.

What would 22 degrees lower temp under the hood equate to on the dyno and as far as being any real help to heat soak/cool down times at the track?
