Attn: Ram Air Hood Owners

AdamM · 07-21-2002, 12:12 PM

I have a question and I hope that ya'll can help. Because of the mishap with my hood, I am beginning to think that it is time to put on my Stormin Norman (sp?) hood. I had originally planned to wait until I had another vehicle, so that if it was raining, I would not have to drive the stang. I do not have the ram air set up that is available. My question is how much water will I get on the motor if I get rained on while driving? Do any of ya'll drive your cars with these types of hoods in the rain? If so, what do I need to do to protect the motor. Any advice will help, I'm making it ya'lls call as to wether or not I put the hood on or wait.

Put it on and drive it. If a little water gets inside, its not going to be a problem and its not going to hurt anything.

I agree with Mach 1. I have the storman norman hood, but I have the ram air kit, so my engine stays dry. The only concern I can see is if you're driving in heavy traffic when it rains, your engine will have a bunch of road grime! yuk!
