Project Cuda: Building a 1969 Plymouth Barracuda Big Bore Car

Brake and Clutch Master Cylinder Cooling
To help keep engine heat out of the brake fluid, I built an aluminum heat shield around the brake and clutch master cylinder assembly. There is a factory hole in the radiator core support for an optional A/C condenser that is just about inline with the master cylinders, so I decided to pipe in fresh air versus welding up that hole. I used a tapered carpentry sawdust collector for the inlet and 2-1/2" dust collector duct from there back to the heat shield. A couple Adel clamps and zip ties secure the duct to the inner fender.
