yeah maybe


yeah not having to cut into the parcel shelf would be good as there is precious little storage room there any way, but then you would need to find a way to bend the hose so the air is directed straight into the rear of the fan housing, although with the volume of air that i reckon gets pushed in there just having it in the engine bay might do the trick it would also mean more direct flow through the hoses and with twin carbs could also act as a cold air intake. the fan is still only pulling the amount of air its capable of any way so as long as its got access to plenty no probs i guess what do others think ? im sure you could probably find a plastic plumbing fitting of some kind to turn the flow ninety degrees anyway and then just fix to the firewall. maybe an elongated oval kind of hose could be used . will look into and post results as i am at this stage on my other project now.

I have got a tenis ball with an 'x' cut into it, i push this onto the lock on the inside and it lifts the decklid a bit at the bottom. Makes a difference on the hotter days. I drove it from Mitagong to Wolongong the to Stanwell Park the other day, was semi hot, got to Stanwell Park and could hold the dipstick for a while. Defo makes a difference
