Cooling fan on the hood??
Guys do you think adding a small cooling fan from a rad to take the exhaust heat would do any good?
I've lifted my hood to take the heat out of the front of the car over the windshield but I think that's not sufficient in my country where the tarmac is heated up to around 40Centi or even more during a normal day.. So do you think this will help and do you think it will only be my battery that would be a problem for me if I sort my space problem? Cheated on my いたずらな女の子 and now I can't get enough of her.. |

maybe wrap the exhaust and remove the rubber at the windscreen side at top of the firewall

I really dont want to cut the stock hood cuz its precious..
I've lifted the hood at the windshield side about 1.5 inches but dont want to remove the beading either cuz that beading stops all the leaves and even the excess water from going in too much to the engine bay.. Believe me when it rains it rains hard in Sri Lanka.. Isn't wrapping the header and putting a fan much easier?? Cheated on my いたずらな女の子 and now I can't get enough of her.. |

Doesn't sound like you have a problem? If the car is happy and not overheating, why complicate things?

Actually my problem is that the driver and passenger gets quite a bit of heat inside.. Driving during the day with the road being quite warm and the engine heat being leaked into the cabin believe me is painful!!
How do I solve that? I was thinking even putting a heat shield at the firewall on the inside as i dont want to remove the engine but that's a bigger job than putting a fan.. Cheated on my いたずらな女の子 and now I can't get enough of her.. |

Fan won't make any difference, regardless of size.
Fan capacity is ridiculous compared to volume of the air that moves around car just because car is moving. As you must know, fan will do the job only at really low speeds, when the car reaches 30+ km/h, his job is done. Make some tunnels and ducts in front or under the car if you don't want to cut hood. |

The only real way to have it cool inside the cabin in countries like ours is AC.
The only problem I had is while racing with the footwell getting very hot above the downpipe. This can be sorted woth some heatwrap. Honestly I doubt any change to try and lower the enginbay temps will have any effect on the cabin as long as you have all the blanking plugs in the firewall fitted. AE86 ex-daily |
