When I bought my car, it did not have a rain tray installed on the engine bay cover. I was going to buy one, but now I'm building a 2366 and want to do everything I can to keep it cool. Are there any cooling benefits to not having a rain tray? If I don't add one, how do I stop water from getting in the engine?

It’s also a carwash tray… That was more of my concern. I don't plan on driving it in the rain, just don't want to get water in the engine while washing or during a spring pop-up shower, etc. Mine is garaged, and what I do is dust it off, get a bucket of water and rag. I've had my 914 for 7 years now, and its never seen a hose. Saves precious water also. |
