Car's looking good!

Did the hood vents make a noticeable difference in terms of coolant temps?

Not that I noticed. I should have a good comparison this weekend at Sebring.

I would try to get something in front of those hood vents. You should get a lot more air pulled out of the engine bay if there is some sort of leading edge in front of the vents. Without it the airflow of the hood and over the top of the vents will probably seal them off since they are inset into the hood.

Car looks great on the CEs! Careful running the car on track with the center caps if you are. Heat builds up behind them and they go rocketing off.
