That looks good too. Especially if you want to move a TON of air! We use the M (what you have on the outside?) mainly because it removes the least amount of hood structure.

Thanks Chris. The reason for my post was to show what someone could add in a center set in addition to the outside Medium's; http://hoodlouvers.com/product-category/size-medium-hood-louvershood-vents/

Center set are the Short/Wide's; http://hoodlouvers.com/shop/short-wide-powder-coated-gloss-white-hi/
And no hood structure cut out for these center vents, just upper hood "skin layer"(I love my body shop, such pros!);

BTW, I didn't know these hoods are fiberglass. Ford really trying to save some weight eh?

There is one downside to all this heat extraction. Here in the rainy PNW when it monsoons(that's one of the many reasons you don't want to move here ;) ), water infiltrates the engine bay. Since I'd rather not have water blobs all over the SPOD, engine, etc, I carry this plastic sheeting(from my home flooring project--black tape is to remind me it's on the hood when I drive away) and 4 35lb neodymium magnets to hold it down. Works awesome and keeps the water out of the engine bay.

PS--up next from UJOR for VANdiana are all new upper/lower shock mounts, Fox 2.0's all around, Fox steering stabilizer, black SSBC front 8piston calipers/rotors/pads. Really looking forward to this addition!

Jeremy,

I'm subscribed to 43 threads on this forum, and this is just one of several forums I'm on, plus a dozen Facebook Offroad, RV, and camping pages.

Love it when a DIY install comes to the shop! This super nice 97 was done by a customer in GA, he did a great job.

Well, you said call any time!

I know that we were both getting ready for a wild Monday so it would help to just knock it out then.

Big thanks to you and the guys for getting me in and out so fast. Very happy with the ride! It was fun just getting a chance to poke around your shop and see all the awesomeness!
