How do you suggest keeping the underwood temps down?

Did you buy Kelly's white/ red rig? She is meticulous on her vehicles, it was an unfortunate situation on that block, but hopefully it will last a long time!

Someone asked up there, so if this is the one I believe it is, an indy shop went to change the oil pan gaskets, and found a crack in the block, from a casting flaw. Rig went to the dealer, got a whole new engine from BMWNA after some haggling.
