I quite like the appearance of your generation. Not sure what those little inlets are for, but they look cool. Overall, they just have a lighter more nimble appearance. The later Cobras, which are cool in their own way, kinda have that GM Brutalism design thing going on, which I'm sort of on/off about.

Which ones are you talking about the ones on the hood or the side vents?
Hood.

They are actually vented into the engine compartment but I don't think they do anything. They may let out a little heat when your not moving but I can't see that they would do anything at speed. By the way the hood is not the original for my 94 it's off a 98 Cobra. As are the wheels.
I have hear of different things, like that guy that on his first one he blew it up and then there is other that "SAY" that they have done it lots of times and have not blown up. HArd to believe what u read lots of the times on the internet but i dont boos it in fifth or six. I can afford to pay for a block.

My understanding of the post was because of the prolonged high heat and very tight Piston to Cylinder wall clearance, not loading or stress. Basically the pistons start to bind in the cylinders as the expand too much under heat. That's what I got out of it. Also, I'm pretty sure HS runs (at least in typical Corvettes) are all done winding out 5th. 6th is just for mileage on the freeways.
That pretty much covers it.
