    Ok...sticky taped dozens of wooly strips everywhere.

    Interesting...

    Cold engine coming down hill they all sucked in of course.

    Engine hot, they all blew out even up until 60kms sometimes.

    Kind of hard to read exactly but even at higher speeds they were blowing out but could of been the wind speed too.

    Definitely saw some sucking at above 60kms though and definitely saw blowing out from low speeds up to 60 too.

    Also noticed water temps dropped quicker once over the big hill then normal.

    Either way, it works!

    There are other small tricks to make them stay cooler .

    As for your wool did you tape any to just under the lip of the bonnet. Very interesting to see your results. Do you have a go pro or something that you can video it while your focus on driving?

    Rear quarter chop and welded plates, 30mm off all guards properly folded.

    Looks great, really happy with the result.

    Painting time and some flares, cut returns off bull bar to suit, rear bar, new tyres, etc will come up a treat!
