[Tigers] How Hot is Hot?

I concur with all the discussion of airflow. However, I think a lot of  
air gets trapped in the engine compartment. If you look at modern cars  
they all have venting in the wheel wells, or the stylish-again fender  
vents. Perhaps the vents on the lat hood are too high and too close to  
the windshield (high pressure zone) to be effective for heat escape. I  
wonder if anyone has experience with the fender vents like on the  
Tiger rally cars. I am contemplating removing metal in the inner  
fender to help hot air escape. Might even consider a small exhaust fan  
there to keep flow going. I have seen that trick on some custom Cobras  
at it seems to help.
