Does that cover make the engine run too hot? Felix: I've talked to a few folks that has this, or some type, of engine cover in place. The critical element is having adequate airflow...(as Dave W. says). One owner....who shall remain nameless....said that he monitored engine temp with, and without, an engine cover....saw ZERO difference. Tom

Hi Tom and Dave W,
Thank you for your input.
The only time my Roadster ran a bit hot was when I had fitted a rally plate to the radiator grill and it was extremely hot weather on the Italian motorway.

Very nicely done, how is progress on your car? At last report...TODAY....the car is 100% road tested, washed, dried, fueled, and ready to go. HOWEVER....we are still awaiting PENN DOT to generate the Proper documentation to declare William the Wanderer LEGAL. As some already know....I've been packed, and leaning towards the door for TWO weeks....BUT...I'm confident that soon....soon....SOOOOON we will be able to hit the road...
