Front Oil Cooler Hood Vent Ideas

I'm looking for some front oil cooler vent ideas to divert air through the front body then up out of the hood.

Here's what I've found on this board... anyone have any other ideas?

Can you divert air in the through the front body then out the left and right fender wells?

yes you can, ther has been a few people on this board who should chime in. They opened up the inner trunk area, and then vented it out in front of the battery boxes.

p.s. that first green car is awesome!!

Very interesting... I wonder if it will provide enough flow.

" I wonder if it will provide enough flow."

I suspect it's enough. If it doesn't, a couple of additional inline blowers would make short work of any stagnant air in the box (see the white item at the end of the upper vent hose).

Thanks for the comments, Sherwood! It does look like a slick setup.

Well there is this...

You can't really see much.. I am going to try and look for an RSR set-up picture.
A vent in the hood is too much work for me.... but this might just be the ticket.
