So what is the theory behind that gt40 scoop anyway? Presume it draughts the air straight out after passing through the radiator, but won't the engine bay itself get a bit hot? I thought these cobras originally suffered heating problems brought on from a small nose and large engine, (well larger than originally anticipated) so dragging the airflow out before it reaches the engine seems wrong to me.

Anyone - feel free to educate me!
