[QUOTE="jkp, post: 645583, member: 23500"] Just to close out on the original topic: I ordered some [URL='https://limebug.com/product/engine-rear-tinware-without-pre-heats-with-fresh-air-outlets/']new tinware[/URL] in the end as it was cheap-as-chips (lets hope there is no catch when it arrives!)....it'll tidy up a bunch of other holes that have been blanked and I just think it'll give me piece-of-mind that I've done everything I can when it comes to sealing off sources of hot-air from the engine where I can... On that note though - one thing I have noticed is that the rear valance gets really warm on a good run...enough to turn it into a sort of radiator. I do have an aftermarket exhaust (vintage speed thing) on there and its a long time since I fitted it so I cant for the life of me remember if the original setup was any different. This has been [URL='https://earlybay.com/threads/engine-bay-temperature.66538/']covered before[/URL] but shout if theres anything I should be mindful of on that front! Cheers folks [/QUOTE]
