I have risers in my hood where it meets the windshield its raised about half inch or more. Should I worry about the rain and take the risers out?

 

no unless it's parked outside or something

 

Soo yeah my car is parked outside and what about when I am driving and it rains?

 

The water will drain into the cowl area which has little drains in itself that go under the car. I had mine like that for a while and had no problems...

 

fix your hood... it'll be worth it

 

^well he basically is doing that to release some engine bay heat.

 

dude, just think about the muscle car guys with 4" cowl hoods... its' fine

 

Hey thanks yeah I never thought about those cars but yeah it makes sense. Thanks a lot bro.

It makes sense because they have a huge air filter only inches away from the cowl. They use it to provide air to the engine....if you want to lower engine temps it won't do much. I had my hood raised in the back and when I put it back to stock I had no temperature change (Defi temp gauge). Just FYI
