Cowl vent not closing tight
For the past 2 weeks I have been trying to install the cowl vent on my 48. Can not get it to close tight. Front stays up about an 1/2 inch. The bracket holes do not line up. Seem to be out of line about a 1/4 inch. Nothing is bent and all looks fine. I did not take them off and they were with the car when I got it. Before I cut the bracket and weld it I am hoping someone can shed some light on my issue. Also where do the friction washers go?

Re: Cowl vent not closing tight
My 36 is probably quite different from your 41 but I had to revamp the hinges on it to get it to fit right. I hesitated a long time before I modified it for fear of messing it up. Couldn't understand how it could not be right, when it seemed to be when I took it off. Anyway, after I changed the hinges (moved the hinge pin locations by 1/4") the vent works very well.
Who knows? |
