I have heard people mention it but haven't seen one.
I haven't swapped so the opening is directly over my
distributor on my 7A. I could probably make one easy
enough if I knew what it looked like. I thought about using
some 1/16" thick abs and cutting the shape on a cnc and mounting
it under the grate if anyone else needs or wants one I should be
making mine sometime in the next few weeks. If anyone has a
pic of a real one It would be greatly appriciated. smile.gif

Cool thanks. I think I had better stick with aluminum anodized black
because of the heat, I will probably need to do a different vent setup
also.

Will do, I am trying to figure out a few things, If I look into it I
could probably get a louvered plate and cut the shape very similar
to the pic above, I thought about blocking it completely and
making a couple drain holes in the corners but I'm not sure how the
paint on the alluminum hood would react to the extra heat by the
vent being blocked, maybe it wouldn't. I'll try to draw some stuff
up in the next few days for imput. smile.gif
