I recently purchased a 2006 E-350 with the 6.0 stroke. I have been trying to figure a way to get more air flow under the hood not because its getting to hot or over heating, but because I live in Arizona, Phoenix to be exact, and just want more air moving around the engine. I've seen the vents that Ujoint did on V4 and I like them, and think that they work better to let hot air out rather then draw cold air in. I saw that Steelheadbum has scoop on his van, not sure if it is a functioning scoop or not but it sure looks cool. My thoughts are to do something similar to force cool air in and to to install the fender vents, I believe they are snowmobile screens, to let hot air out. I am hoping that by adding the scoop it would help with egt's and with trans temps as well, my only concern is if at highway speeds would it force to much air in against the dog house and cause the heat to enter inside the van around the seal. I figured if anyone would know, it would be someone here! Love all the vans on this site and have followed all the build threads. Thanks to everyone for the inspiration to start on my own van and thank you in advance for your input.
