Just a thought but in my old race days on one of the 240's (Datsun) It was a
rally car, anyway we had a problem of heat build up under the hood. To
combat this problem we but a solid plat across the underside of the engine
compartment Modified the air dam to case a low-pressure area under and we
installed what would best be described as hood lovers in the plate. This had
the effect of causing a vacuum in the engine compartment. As a matter of
fact as I recall at high speed you could see the hood deflect down ward.  I
will take a look under mine and see if it is possible to make the same mod.
