DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

A VW engine is much better than no engine!

Perhaps jumping the gun but....

I'd strongly suggest either:

a) making a full set of tinwear to isolate the engine bay from all the hot air underneath (that will otherwise rise up and be sucked into the fan... again).

b) running a very large bore flexi hose from the fan intake up to the engine cover grill to create a cold air feed.

Your probably aware of this but I thought it was worth a nudge.
