[Fot] [TR] Wing or Side Fender Vents

[gsfuqua1 at aol.com]

Thank you for the information.  I had them on a rally TR 4 quite a few  
years ago.  As for functional Vs cosmetic I suppose it would depend on how  
they are installed.  If you just cut a hole and stick them in then it is  
probably more cosmetic.  However is you build a small scoop that funnels  air out 
I believe it will lower the engine bay temp.  Guess we'll just have  to see 
how it all comes together.
 
Cheers, Gary

Correct,  Phil. The grilles were cut down pieces from the Herald 948/1200, 
and
it is  Neil Revington that supplies kits.

ISTR hearing somewhere that these  vents ultimately proved more cosmetic 
than
useful?

As I recall the works  rally cars used Herald grill mesh. The whole assembly
can
be bought from  one of the UK suppliers. Triumphtune?  Rimmer?   Revington?
Sorry
but it's still a little early for  me.
