Keeping cooler
« on: Sun 08/11/09, 22:18 »
Saw this neat little mod on a bus at Breeze this year that helps keep the Porsche engine cool. Simple really when you think about it and your bus still looks unmodified. Cut around the rear license plate, raise it and then fit the plate back. Genius!!

Heres another idea.
Use part of a bay front airvent and weld it into the lid.

There are two types of people in this world.
Those that drive late bays...
And those that wished they did.
