I concur with all the discussion of airflow. However, I think a lot of
air gets trapped in the engine compartment. If you look at modern cars
they all have venting in the wheel wells, or the stylish-again fender
vents. Perhaps the vents on the lat hood are too high and too close to
the windshield (high pressure zone) to be effective for heat escape. I
wonder if anyone has experience with the fender vents like on the
Tiger rally cars. I am contemplating removing metal in the inner
fender to help hot air escape. Might even consider a small exhaust fan
there to keep flow going. I have seen that trick on some custom Cobras
at it seems to help.
