You must know some on this forum do not advocate for this mod but I do run it. You must make your own decision.

does it help with the heat in the motor bay and when it rains does it leak in

The Black

It does fine in the rain. I spaced mine because I sprayed a blanket on it. And yes it helps a lot with the heat.

I would not use washers. Get a solid piece of metal and use grade 8 bolts. A 1/2" will work fine. I bought mine but I cannot remember from where.

i used washers and have had no issues at all... and i stand on my hood..
i just put washers on the back bolt. i think i used 4 to 5 washers. i also used the factory bolts.. every one will do it a different way you just gotta try it and see what fits you best

Would removing the rubber gasket do basically the same thing?

The Black

It could I guess.
