When i get home on Monday I'll post pics. I know it's internal heat that kills motors. Hence why diesels last allot longer but if I'm wot for miles id like the xtra cooling a scoop does, i can't see in any way scoops affecting running temp at slow speeds. Plus i got a nice spot for stickers. Some how we got off subject . Any how scoop looks good 79 bronco. You do "clean work" ...
If your are WOT for miles then there will be ample air passing over the fins to keep the motor at the correct operating temperature.
Have you considered what turbulence you may be creating by putting restrictions in the air flow.
I understand very little about aerodynamics, but I do understand that if you increase the distance that air has to travel across a surface to get to the same point on the other side of the restriction, you create an area of low pressure.
If I have confused you, study the dynamics of an aircraft wing, lift is produced by the lower air pressure on the wings upper surface..
There may actually be less air passing over the motor with a funnel in the way, or am I barking up the wrong tree.?
Contrary to public belief stickers do not add speed, they add extra weight and drag.
