<VV> PARADE HEAT ISSUES?

Only thing I ever did for heat issues was remove just the doors and stats.  
Someone (engineer type) explained to me some principles of heat extraction 
by  airflow a long time ago (beyond my memory) . What was explained was if 
airflow  is too fast (as in no bottom shrouds) air would not be able to 
remove as much  heat as with some slight restriction . So I have been leaving 
shrouds on , no  stats or doors , and all possible covers on inside of motor 
compartment to keep  that air away from exit hot air. This has worked well for 
me on a 64 Turbo , and  several other FC's etc. This is the way all motors 
I build leave here now.
What ever you do , don't let it ping!     check all the  obvious  if you 
indicate high heat.
