Brake cooling 101
68 Firebird, 11" vented rotors with single piston (for now) calipers. Can't go larger dia rotor due to HSR class rules.
Right now I have the dust shield backing plates still on, I was looking at cutting part of it out, making somewhat of a funnel and hooking 2" hose to it, my thoughts on this is it would spread the air over the rotor better rather than removing the shield and blowing air at an open area, also running a 2" to blow air on the caliper.
All this air comes from the front turn signal holes. I cobbled together a duct but haven't been able to figure out how to attach the screen so it looks good but the jist of what I'm doing is there.
The hose in the pic is just laying there, I'd have to move it up on the frame and A arm to keep it away from the tire.
Need some opinions on what I'm doing.
