Ive been toying around with fiberglass for a while now and I wanted to share my latest project. Input and ideas are appreciated. This hood is actually the plug for the mold im going to make so I can reproduce it later on. Its made for a top mount intercooler that im fabbing up slowly but surely lol.

I want to add some vents to let out some engine bay heat, anyone got any good ideas as to where or what shape they should be?

 

are you making anything to force air through from underneath...?

 

As of right now the intake is going to be sucking air in through the top. The hood is going to fit flush against the intercooler which in turn sits flush against an air box with the intake piping in through the side. If that doesn't keep it cool enough im going to run a half size radiator maybe with an air duct coming from the front bumper. Just trying to make something unique lol

 

You should check out this guy's cooling setup, this is why I asked.

yea that's very similar to what im doing except my intercooler is at the top of the duct instead of the bottom. I have decided to run the half size radiator and make a duct very similar to this one. I think mine will only have one split in it instead of two like this guy did. I figured if I split the air flow it would optimize it a little better instead of it all crashing into the intercooler at the top. I will still have the intake somewhere in this setup but I haven't decided exactly where yet. Im probably going to have an offshoot to the duct somewhere where the intake will sit.

 

I like it man
