Even though the surface area of the hood is a fraction of that of a radiator it still has plenty of airflow.

I have often wondered when "body cooling" would come into use, but sadly I think it would only happen on the bottom of the car due to safety concerns, but we are ecomodders, we don't have to worry about such things.
