Does anyone have any good ideas and pictures of hood and or side skirt venting?
I would like to vent some heat out when running the hood and skirts.

Thanks

Mike

That's pretty cool.
I'm looking for and insert or scoop of some sort, that will let heat out and keep ran out if I get caught in it.

louvers up high and to the rear may help, point them to the rear of the vehicle...may even help air flow through the radiator. I don't recommend them on the hood. Sucks antifreeze and oil over the windshield when things go badly...

That was really thoughtful of you to warn those Ford guys about what could happen to a windshield when their stuff "goes badly"
Hemi's don't mis-behave like that :p Duckin and running for the exit.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

i am rolling on the floor laughing:D
I've blown up my fair share of stuff, but throwing a rod through the side of a 2.3 ford at 75mph in 4wd on RT15 going towards D.C. in a snowstorm was my definition of things going badly...that day. best day was yesterday...

Here is how I did mine. If i was to do it again I would make them taller. No issues but I find my engine bay gets too hot for my liking.

Looks pretty good 4wheelspin.
Did you purchase parts and integrate or fabricate these?

Just cutouts and mesh - but lots of it!
