Default Rain getting in

Have any idea what to do to keep the rain out of the motor. I have a 2 inch cowl hood, and everytime it rains it floods my engine bay out and then I have to reclean everything cause it has water spots and s***. Is there nothing you can do about this? I know blocking off the cowl is an option but that has its downsides because I want the cowl hood to function.

not really, unless you created a screen or one way vapor barrier, or just park in a garage/out of the rain. j/k lol good luck

i have dual openings on the front of my hood....that were cut. the guy before me put grillcraft screen aroud the opening on the indide and took the pieces he cut out and painted them black. if i plan on highway driving in heavy rain i just slide em in and tuck them inbetween the screen and the lip of the opening.....hard to explain btu it works real well.
