Also bought one of these after the spring guys had trouble getting the rear end to drop down far enough for the longer springs.

Further update on under bonnet temps after a 30 minute run down the freeway. The under bonnet temps are sitting at 75deg when cruising and site at circa 80 deg C soak after 10 minutes stopping, which is all an improvement on the 95 to 100degC previously, however not quite at the 60 deg c earlier reported.
Phil did you fix the bonnet latch issue? I can’t seem to find the thread on it...

All good Mark, thanks for remembering! The channel that runs across the front of the radiator was bent 'inwards and canted the catch over towards the bullbar' - extreme description but you get the picture. I bought a new catch as well after destroying the original chasing avenues of craziness! Anyway the solution was leave the channel as it was and make a 6mm packer to slide under the lower edge of the bonnet catch bracket. Unbelievable it fitted and worked perfectly. Now the bonnet is so aligned I just have to push it shut not drop from 10".
The bonnet rear is lifted 10mm now and removed the rear rubber seal as well, so with the under bonnet bilge fans blowing over the headers and 'maybe' a little bit of flow thru the bonnet scoop, the temps have dropped 20 - 25 degC when moving and 15-20 when heat sinking at slow speed, so sort of worth the pain I guess, but wish it was straight forward.
That’s good mate. Glad too see it was sorted...

Willwood Brakes, car up on hoist, all parts stripped, rears swapped out fine, fronts, wrong kit supplied. Who would have guessed? Parts coming over night hope it does not clog up the mechanics workshop too much. Unsure how stuff ups like this can be avoided. very frustrating.
You've had shit luck Phil, that's all there is to it. Fortunately I've never had the same problems as you when ordering online, perhaps my luck will run dry eventually!
