[QUOTE="mu22stang, post: 11602039, member: 81298"] I'm glad to do it! I've been contemplating how to do this for a while. Finally figuring out the fabrication of the gurney was what set the fire for me. If it turns out that the best way to maximize a stock hoods is to pop out the vents, so be it. Hopefully these test will answer that question. I think I'll add a simple manometer test to collect some more direct data. I'll place one end in the center of the vent and the other in the interior, using only reference lines for the level change. Using two different diameter tubes may help. I may also place a separate line about 2" below the hood vent mounting surface to see the engine bay pressure changes. I have an Aeroforce gauge so I'll try to get some ECT info, but on track data will once again be the true test. The gauge should help in another way too. I can see IAT1's. Theoretically, the quicker these recover from a heat soaked, stop light engine bay, the faster the engine bay evacuation. [/QUOTE]
