Ed,
 
Do you recall where you got your (now un-necessary) louvers?  I am going to try an area at the top of my cowl.  Can't seem to find a source for these louvers.  I need 12" X 6" with the cuts going the long direction.

Does anybody think that will make a significant change in cooling air flow or am I wasting my time?
