just wondering how darn hot does it get up in there????


could the fuel be heated up enough to cause vapor lock more readily?? (this I doubt, but had to ask (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

It would seem that the trunk and tank temperature would be dependent on the max air temp coming off the radiator. I don't know what that would be. 140? 160? 180? The bulkhead between the trunk and tank will eventually approach the max air temp, during which the tank is also being heated.

Interesting question.
