Heat is the nature of the beast and trying to find a way to dissipate that heat is going to be the real answer to being supercharged or even turbo'd. Another quick fix is to add the redline waterweter to the stillen reservoir. this is shown to reduce temperature in the radiator so every little helps.

I was thinking off wrapping mine, Also, I did see the threads about added the Redline waterweter to the fluid also, Things I will address when I get it together, The vent hood will help a TON !1 My hood was helping the cause big time.
