Agreeded. But are vents on the side creating low pressure? I'd assume high pressure. Certainly the ones in the back should be generating low-pressure

Not sure if air pressure was thought about in the 70's. All those "ducts"? were done in Germany before I bought the car. The rear is cut open behind the bumper, then cutouts in the bumper with metal screen to evacuate hot air (presumably)?
The cutout in the pass side rocker is because there is a trans (tube type) cooler up in the fender so he did that to get air up there. Cutout on the left is just to match. Trans cooler story is a long one, previous owner claims Porsche based the first racing trans cooler setup on the 915 in 72 off this car! All I know it that it all worked for long time...
