functional hood louvers...???

I have recently purchased an 83 Z28 w/cross-fire injection and noticed the hood louvers are supposed to be functional. Mine are not functioning now, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a common problem with them, and how and when they operate (speed, RPM, etc.)

:nono: You forgot about my 13-second El Camino which is downright pimp. Besides, my C10 is a long-term project.

Does anyone else on this board have a third-gen with CFI?
