Hello everyone,
Last year I upgraded the exhaust on my 71 from my stock SS Heat Exchangers to a header from MSDS. There were warm air guides that attached to the heat exchangers to assist with engine cooling. Should I create new warm air guides to attach to the headers? I'm planning on installing the floor pan air deflectors from 914 rubber to help with cooling, but aside from that, is there anything else I need to do? Thanks in advance! |

Thank you for the replies. All of the tin (other than those air guides) is in place and intact. I try not to drive the car in really hot weather, but if I do, I make sure to keep the RPM's up to keep the air flowing. Hopefully I won't see any significant change in head temp/oil temp/oil pressure. If I do, maybe I could add something to help with air movement.
