There are two sets of 12 LOUVERS in the panel. The panel is approx. 10 1/2 in. wide and 17 1/2 in. in length. Induvudual louvers are 3 in. wide and 3/4 in. in depth. They create a low pressure area at the botton of the cowling, thereby removing heat from the exhaust and oil sump. Simular to cowl flaps, but look better and much easier to install. Billy Waters
