Thanks everyone who took the time to comment on bonnet louvers for a 100-6. As
usual the responses were all over the place. It was suggested that hot air and
odours from the engine compartment will flow over the windscreen and into my
face. Someone with louvers said that the only time there was an odour problem
was when something was amiss (overflowing float bowl, leaking radiator hose)
in the engine compartment. Some people thought louvers look awful, others
really like their looks. I suppose it depends on the size, location and
pattern of the louvers. I got measurements for 100M louvers and a couple of
people who can do the work. Also got offers of already louvered bonnets. Lots
for me to mull over.
Now for another question about louvers. Can anyone tell me what the louvered
bonnets DHMC sold as an option for 100-6s looked like? No chance I suppose of
a photo.
Cheers
