There are two black inserts at the front of my Firehawk hood. I looked under the hood and saw that three plastic "bolts" and nuts hold this on. It appears that the piece that comes out is the black part and a part that is body color.
It appears that I remove this, the airflow could be improved across the front of the motor. Has anyone removed this for tracking/road racing? Is there any reason that I wouldn't want to remove this? More underhood cooling = good. Especially with my car. |

I guess this was a dumb idea... Even so, I may run without the inserts if it doesn't rain.
Water temps run from 160-200. Oil temps from 200-280. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) My attitude is that anything I can do to increase cooling has to be a good thing. Mike T. - I just got back from the track. I met you buddy with the CMC Mustang. I look forward to this weekend. There are a ton of AI/AIX/CMC cars coming. Most of the ones that I saw today didn't even show up on the entrants list on the NASA site... I wish you were here. Even if you weren't running. |
