Louvers, will they pass SVA

Hi Chaps,

I,m starting to think about panels now the frames nearly complete.

I,m planning to have a flat bottom right across the frame and put in louvers to vent in both bonnet, side panels and floor section behind the rad.

Are Louvers SVA friendly or do I need to leave these off until I have submitted for a test ?

Regards Mark

They are acceptable but it depends on the gap. As the gap gets bigger, the edges need to be radiused; for small gaps, blunted eges are required.

Mine are fairly standard and they passed SVA test, I covered them and was asked why as they didn't need them.
