I just swapped motors from the original 305 to a 350 HO. So basically i generate a lot of engine heat even with a new radiator, thermostat, and water pump. I have seen cars that shoot air out the sides of their car from what I believe to be hot air that is built up inside the engine bay. Looking to install something like that especially for the theatrics of it. Looking for a link to the name of such a part or parts!!!

 

I'm running a 2 1/2" rear cowl hood and was curiuos as to getting heat out
of the bay and used adhesive strips behind it to see if positive or negitive
pressure was there.

(Ahead) of the windshield area it was positive.
Nascar at the base of the windshield is negative. thats why they run pick
up air there.

I guess its setup or configuration. Removed foglights and just wanted to get heat out of the bay.

Didin't need rear scoop for clearance as running MR but thought heat exit
would help.

Runs real cool for me but could be radiator and or other factors.

Later

 

how new is this 350? still being broken in?

are you running headers?

 

The 350 is from the late 60's but has all new internals etc, it was completely rebuilt from the crank up, and yes i do have headers as much of a pain in the *** they are lol.
