You should be fine. The 13/14 GT hood vents drain DIRECTLY on the fuse box lid. :uhoh2::dunce:

when I did the vent mod it was in November. my car was in storage so I couldn't bolt it on to check for the correct location.
I just measured a 13 Gt500 that was on the local ford dealer and cut the hole in approximately the same place as a 13 GT500.

when I do the next hood I will probably move the vent back about 2". I don't want to go to far back because it won't look right.
the one thing I noticed is the passenger side of the hole is close to the under hood fuse block now. if I move the vent back 2" I think the edge will be really close to the fuses. will this cause problems?
worse case I could plastic weld on a flap to the vent to keep the water away from the fuses..

with this placement and driven in the downpour socal got on monday, zero issues

Good to know, I don't want to be paranoid about water, I have enough that I'm paranoid about already!
