HEAT UNDER FLOORBOARDS. x819 The improvements for reducing the heat under the floorboards automatically come in with the standardisation for 4-wheel brakes. The improvements are :- 1. New pedals which avoid all gaps to let the hot air through. 2. New undershield which allows better ventilation. 3. New engine guard on exhaust side to allow better ventilation. 4. Re-arrangement of exhaust pipes to reduce the heat against the dashboard. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
