could you raise the hood an inch up near the windshield and build a vent under the hood to take the air coming thru the radiator out over the windsheild. of course the air coming in is under the car. is the air coming off the radiator that hot?

The problem there is that the base of the windshield is a high pressure zone. It isnt as high as the front of the car where your inlet will be, but you won't get as much airflow as if you vent to a low pressure area. When I do my conversion I think I will vent to the wheel wells. I still need to do the calculations, but I think the relative heat coming out of the vents should be far less than the temperature of the brakes under heavy use. |
