The direction is correct, but I think Hotrodz has them upside down. Those vent support bars need to be pointing into the hood. If the vents are turned upside down, then I think they will also need to be turned 180°, and will follow the hood lines. Or I could be wrong since I am not there.

No...

That may be correct...I am not at home so I will check this afternoon.

Hey you disfunctional unit. :rofl2: After you get home from your ball game. Flip the vents over so the the center bar is down. Position the middle vent with the small side in the front. Think the small vents need to be swapped side the side. The left on the right and right on the left. See how that looks. From looking at the new pictures. You have them up side down and asss backwards. :tiphat:

Can’t wait to see how they look installed in the right orientation. Will you be mounting them on the top or from the bottom?

These are made out of aluminium?

How soon before we can actually order them?

So let me get on the band wagon you "Fart Smuckers!" Yeah the orientation was right but I dyslexia was in full force as I did place them upside down LMAO. So we all win! And that is why I did not go into engineering and it has been a long time since I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express!:wtf2:

Thanks for all your patience and feel free to continue to pile on as I deserve it!:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

quick question
these look great just wondering if he did any pressure testing to see if these points are actually low pressure areas so we can guarantee air comes out

I don't know if any actual test were done or it was computer simulated. When I looked at where the SpecTrac vents line up compared to my Fugimora hood they are spot on. The only difference is the SpecTrac vents are way bigger. :yum:

Thanks. I was looking at some pictures on a Corvette forum and they looked aluminum, but oddly enough I couldn't find this info on their website. Perhaps I overlooked it.

I'm interested, let us know when they actually have them ready.

They are made of high grade aluminum!

Those look real nice, even if they are upside down. My hood needs a repaint anyway due to some rock chips and freaking luv bugs. I need to clear bra the whole dang car.
