Hi Guys, A couple years ago we took a 914/Chev back to stock for a customer. I then decided to build a 283 powered car for myself. I would like to avoid the huge cutouts in the wheelhouse. has anyone mounted a fan on the trunk floor, possibly with the 2 fans already on the radiator? This would be great for an already AC cut trunk floor. I'd appreciate your input. Thanks! Brad

The bigest problem w/ going through the floor is it is a much higher pressure area than the wheel wells. Same issue occurs going through the hood.
Perhaps the same 1" lip at the leading edge of the hole will help (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) End up w/ a LOT of air being passed under the car though, remeber that during your high speed testing (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap56.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif) BJH |
