Here is an excellent thread from Damian, along with pics for a more detailed explanation. While it's not of a FMIC setup, the idea works the same.

Rock on! I always thought the gaps let air in as apposed to letting air out. Debatable?

Shin, if what you say is true, then a vented hood would simply solve my problem?

Shinobi-x.. I been thinking of couple of things lately.. One thing is to cover the front top portion, where the radiator and hood latch is.. i hope you know what I mean...
I believe that some air will come thru the IC.. but than the air will flow out to the least restricted area.. which is the sides of the radiator and the top.. So, I'm thinking about doing what Damian has done.. to be honest.. I think for us fmic with verticle radiators, its better to close the top portion.. its lot bigger opening.. I'm going to do this mod this weekend.. i'll let you know how it turns out.. I would like to do it with nicer material.. but it might be thin sheet metal for now..

If I am getting you correctly, it looks like there will be very little space between the frame (along with the fuse box) and the radiator to work with.

Yep.. that's kind of what I was thinking.. except.. smaller.. And I know that I can't completely block off the air.. but at least I could reduce the flow rate.. and the warm air thing.. well, I know it will be an issue.. but still better than no air..
I'll keep you posted.. I'm going to work on a cardboard model today and test it out.. then an aluminum one..
