Hood spacers came off several days ago. Ran my own test wish strings to see the turbulent air in that area for myself. I'm the type that likes to prove things like this for myself a lot of the time, so I don't really regret that I bought them (a whole $12).
Having only been around and seen in person a grand total of 2 other k series cars before my own and knowing that the previous owner had cut out a lot of bracing on the underside of his hood, I used the hood spacers to make sure I was going to have clearance without any issues and didn't get time to check without them until this past week after the event. That was the driving reason for dropping a couple dollars on the hood spacers was just my pure unfamiliarness with the K series and its fitment prior to this build, I know that if I'm looking for increased cooling from air flow, I'd want to do an actual vented hood and duct the radiator. Which will probably happen eventually.
