Ok, hood mod or not, when you hose off the car, water runs in the hood vents and ends up somewhere.
Basic theorectical stuff: The plastic flaps (baffles): Are they functional? Do they really move the water that much further towards the front, thereby avoiding the pulley? What is the first thing the water falls on when the mod is performed as Postban describes? How about on an unmodded hood setup.
I'd appreciate any and all theories... I'll gather my opinion from all of yours. I for one, think that the hood mod what we should have had to begin with. I don't find the stock setup to be 'functional'.
Key question: How do the hood vent flaps (baffles) and hood blanket really change the behaviour of where water falls?
