Not necessary. In fact the whole tunnel cover is pretty much not needed, but it makes people feel more comfortable. If you feel the need lay down a piece of balsa.

Ok then..what about cutting the Cowling... does it really need it or the holes on the bottom of the fuse where the canister is will be enough for the air to exit and cool the Engine??
Or ould I still cut some small slots on the bottom of the Cowling,,I have open the hole where the Cylinder head stick out a bit.

Basically air enters as it flows over the cylinder fins, flows down through the canister tunnel and then exits out the bottom vents.
