[Tigers] An Air Flow Question for the Worlds Fastest SUnbeam (wannabe)

[drmayf]

Since I have boxed in the motor by putting in some fender wells, the 
motor house gets downright hot!  I was thinking, usually dangerous to 
self and by standers alike, that I could make a couple of 1/2 inch thick 
spacers to go between the hood and the hinges. That would open the front 
of the hood a 1/2 inch and let ram air in to the motor house. ANd take 
some of that heat down and out.   Anythoughts to this hair brained idea? 
The rear of the hood is held in place by three dzus buttons but the 
front is held in place soley by the hinges.

Thoughts? COmments? Jeers? Barbs? I'll take them all if related to the 
issue...
