Interior engine compartment Heat!
I am running a 383 with Tpis headers(ceramic coated).Coolant temps are fine(evans cooling)But engine compartment is hot!Breathers are poping out(seals are melting).Does any one have those interior side fans that corvette central used to sell?Who makes them?Do not want to go to a cowl induction hood. :chevy

Are you sure you timing is not retarded? I have the same setup - 383 TPIS headers and I originally had problems with heat until a friend timed it correctly.

Do you have the stock or reworked CrossFire Set-up????
The stock hood can be set up for ram air.....
Go to the CrossFire Forum........It should help you...
I'm sorry that I don't know the URL......Maybe someone can chime in and give you the info....unless you already know it......
Good Luck
