M series center hood vent?

samsquatch47 · Oct 19, 2008

I have seen this on a few vids of Burandt's turbo sleds. Anybody else seen it and know who makes it? Looks like it would work on my sno pro mod hood. i got problems with lots of under hood heat, there is not much for vents.
Thanks all.

xxxmodrods has them and so does 2cool. I'm sure there are others as well.

Here's a couple links

I've seen the 2cool vent and its pretty nice. PM SNOW JW on here for the 2cool vents, he probably has what your looking for.

I just received a set of xxxmodrod vents for my M.
Have not installed them yet but looks like It will have plenty of venting once installed.
Had a hiccup with my phone order, but problem was resolved and shipped quick.

To those who have the center hood vent installed, does it collect a bunch of snow that will melt inside the screen material and then ultimately freeze making the vent pretty much useless?

That is a very good question, curious to see what people have to say. I am interested in the 2 cool air vent for the front of thehood, but they have not gotten back with me on a price.

The vent that I put on my hood last year didnt collect any more snow than the stock hood did. No frame to catch the snow on and the mesh is water proof, so absolutely no water dripping in for sure.

I have burandts 08 M8T, just picked it up and he cut like 4 or five holes and left it open for the snow to melt on the cooler. and then drilled 1 inch holes in the bottom for water to come out,
I jus bought a mesh Diamond S hood, Chris likes to hit trees so there are a few cracks to say the least, I can get ya picks if ya like.

Here is a picture of the vents we have for the hood.

Catcrazy - sorry you haven't gotten a response - we've done 3 sled shows in a row and are trying to keep up on orders and be sick all at the same time and we haven't been as responsive to everyone as we like to be. I apoligize!

ALL of our vents are aluminum frames and they can be built with or without prefilter. On the hoods, unless they are going to affect the intake, we do not normally include prefilter material.

We have black, white, gray, blue, green, orange, yellow and red.

This is the big center hood vent ($100) and the smaller side ones are $55/pr
