Default 968 turbo rs vents

Has anyone placed these into a 951 hood. I thought to get some more fresh air under the hood....will they fit ?? also to help cool the temps under the hood. I'm also considering having the stock airbox vented slightly under the hood. So not directly connected to the vents but to the open air under the hood. I thought this may help keep the air temps down goiung into the airbox. Would look ok wouldnt it ??

David Floyd just had vents stamped in his hood to REMOVE heat, track car and it looks really good. The above link offers vents and ducts with drawings for dimensions.

the stamped ones look good but i was hoping for the look of the 968RS. Do you think they can fit in the hood. I was looking at it close either side of airbox...but one would go onto the distibuter cap so...not so good (unless got wasted spark setup) around the area of washer tank and coolant tank maybe.....

The problem with the RS style is the center under-hood support.
