oh which vehicle?

your air dam helps with rad airflow.
a cowl hood helps with engine air flow, if you seal it to your carb (so depends on cars induction)

remove fog lights if you have them. If you have louvered grill remove it and swap it out. both will allow more flow to the radiator while driving.

If you have a carb and a stock hood (not a louvered one) cut it and stick butterflied scoop on it. TPI get a ram air hood with functioning air box.
