A C8 Corvette's engine needs air to operate and it also requires air to remove heat from the radiators so the engine can operate at its ideal temperature.
In a high-performance mid-engine car, like the C8 Corvette, managing the engine's heat and the airflow necessary to remove that heat is a big challenge.
The vents over the Corvette's engine were designed for hot air to exhaust through them, but water from a rainstorm or a carwash will also enter through these vents.
We think mid engine cars like the C8 Corvette and water don't mix and have developed a product to not only increase the heat/air flow out, but also protect and keep water from entering, the C8 engine compartment..
Water makes its way through the stock mesh vents and into the engine bay with the Corvette's 6.2-liter V-8. The Corvette Engineers knew that water will get into the engine compartment, and they designed rain trays, drain channels, and watertight electrical connectors specifically because of that.
If those engineers had made the C8's engine compartment watertight, that would also choke off that crucial supply of air.
Our C8 Corvette Heat Extractors not only help impede the direct flow of water through those vents, but we designed them to actually pull the exhaust heat out the back of the scoops more effectively.
We feel keeping water out of the engine compartment and off your C8 engine cover is a huge time saver for people who keep their C8 Corvette spotless.
After all, modern cars are much more computerized than ever before and getting the mid-mounted 6.2-liter LT2 V8 engine wet is not something that most of us want.
Our C8 Corvette Heat Extractor is designed and manufactured to help dissipate heated air from your C8 engine bay and protect it from water, as well as adding a different performance appearance to your rear hood.
Easy installation with the provided 3M tape and simple hardware and comes in Gloss Black.
