Any issues with snow on the hood in the winter, melting through the vent causing issues?

That looks really good. Interested to hear the car was spluttering on hot days though, it gets pretty warm here (!) and mine never misses a beat...

Cheers!

Wow, holy thread revival.

Seadart; as far as snow goes, no problems here. Raining allows more water into engine bay right under the vents. Has not caused any problems at all.

TheTank; I'm still not sure what caused the stuttering I was experiencing back then. I think the vents helped cool the engine bay which could have released some temperature stress on a failing wiring/sensor part. Since then I have relocated the EFI relay inside the cab. I have also bypassed the Smog/EGR system. That seems to have smoothed out a slight missing I was experiencing.

Here's how it looks today. My son and I painted it dune beige a few years back and now it's his daily ride.

The truck looks awesome now... Any legal issues with carrying the hi lift on the front bar? Looks cool tho, it'd pass as a native down round these parts!

Just another reason for hood vents. With the help of a few bungees, they held the throttle body up nicely for removing/installing the valve cover when I changed out the gasket.

Would you have any interest in doing this to my 80? I also live in Edmond.
