Think outside, no box required.
Hmm
Been pondering this for a while, I did an EAS overhaul on a RRC LSE a good few weeks ago and those have the EAS compressor and valveblock mounted on the chassis with a whacking great vent in the side, and under operation they tend to stay quite cool..
For obvious reasons..
The P38 having it in the engine bay with absolutely 0 airflow seems to be a bit of a hinderance, especially considering the heat that lingers under the bonnet even under normal operation.
The Box has from what I can see 2 small vents, however they seem to do sweet phuque all in terms of heat dissipation.
Being that heat rises and all that Jazz would It be worth making some nice vents in the EAS box lid, maybe in the side, to allow excess heat to escape under operation...
EAS components from what I understand get quite toasty under normal conditions anyway, even when everything is in 100% tip top shape, but surely every little helps? eh?
Whats the collectives opinion on this....
Ahem...
