the z06 side cove are much larger than the base c6 and if you look inside them you can see the washer fluid tank or the dry sump tank.
on the base c6 if try to look inside the cove all you can see is a peice of plastic blocking it.

now the plastic has some small holes in it that might allow the cove to draw some hot air out from the engine.

has anyone removed these plastic peices to try to maximize the effectivness of the side cove to draw hot air out of the engine bay.

might even remove the washer tank and relocate the battery to the rear to remove the large items blocking free flow from the headers to the side coves.

its easy to do i went ahead and removed them, as i was replacing the drl bulbs anyway.

so i pulled the front tires off then removed the rear lower half of the inner wheel well liner and took these out of both sides.

im thinking of moving the battery to the rear for weight transfer and maybe it'll open up a better path to help scavenge the heat from the engine bay.
