    Wow , you sure are quick to respond considering the job is not done yet ? And just curious not knowing what holds in the future and after all is said and done when the job is finished ...are you sure that it really matter's what you think ............... Dude you really are to short with your answers and the people that you are responding too considering you are trying to help but in reality have a rude sense about you. I....guess it would be nice if you would tone it down a bit and with that in mind i can almost bet this will lite a spark under your a$$...................big deal!

    I told the wife we could drop it in on Sunday, minus some of the interior and unfinished vents. Only problem is it is our 10yr aniversary. I will let you know how that works out.

    Hey, Daredevil. What sort of actually testing have you done on Ram Air? You seem to always have somthing to say about everything but never talk about details about the facts. Although you always talk about knowing the facts. If you do not have anything positive to post here don't bother.

    About 10-15 posts back,,i told u what i think of it and that i have expirienced the effect on a to much air scoop.

    So what is it that u want to know ??? Will it work ? , NO ...why ? , way to much air !!!!!!!!!!!

    What do u wanna hear ? , Great ,,good job ..WOW, nice,best i have ever seen and so on..well , then i am sorry to have bortherd u, because i don't lie !!!!

    And like said before, post some results......oh, just think about how much air @ WOT your engine CAN handle,,and then messure your scoop @ 50 MPH i bet u are already way over the limit......why i would bet that , because i have been there and pressurized my enginecompartment even with vents so bad that i had oil moist pushing thru a 3/4 inch pipe (drain pipe) all the way from the rear bulkhead to the front drain about 25 feet forward of the engine.

    But hey,,more power to ya......maybe that fiberglasser knows engines and airflow as well ?????? haha

    Just curious - If your concern was a cooler air charge to the engine - why not just add a chiller to the engine??

    Thanks for the input. Later in the year I will be adding the ducting and plenum to direct the air into the TB. I will not just be pressurizing the engine compartment like somone keeps bringing up. My engine is NA, I believe super chiller is used for superchargers.

    I really don't see any difference than what my boat has as far as vent design. I don't think Fountain would have used them if it scrubbed any speed off. Gotta click the pics a couple times to blow it up.
