<VV> Lower Shroud removal questions

[David George]

Quick question about removing lower shrouds. I have read a lot of threads where folks say then run for the summer without lower shrouds to improve cooling of the heads.  Since the linkage to the bellows doors is connected to those shrouds, are they also removing the doors for the summer or letting them flop free after removing the linkage with the shroud? Thought I'd ask since I will be removing the shrouds on top and bottom to do a clean out. Thought I might just leave the bottoms off for the summer if it won't hurt anything. Thanks!
