WW air vents cool engine.

[winreboot]

I have a WW kit and the side skirts vents are just a visual thing. I was thinking of using them to cool the engine.

I think it is something that can be done. Run a soft tube from the lower WW side skirt vent under the rear fender to engine compartment from left and right. This will cool engine down at higher speeds. Stock engine does not need this but if you run aftermarket headers or turbo etc.. it might help. Some drilling would be required I think. What do you guys think.

Brakes.

I agree with Major Stoner. Air ducts are best used to cool the brakes. If you think you need engine cooling, look into an oil cooler.

Check out the current Corvette C5-Z06 for an example of skirt-scoop-fed rear brake cooling.
