Oh no real physics what next coanda effect
Hey Mike... Did you get something like this?I'm in the process of installing a dual snorkel air cleaner that will be routed with flex hose to the fender wells since I have a flat hood on my fastback with no ram air possible here. I sourced the air cleaner and duct work from an 85 mustang Gt, painted the base old ford blue, polished the aluminum top a bit and reused my K&N from my previous setup. The snorkel extensions are on order and I will post up pics and any gains if noticed when it is finished. My car is a sportsroof restomod so I am trying to keep it correct looking but doesn't have to be 100% original. Excellent read on the ram air system by the way and am willing to bet my fresh air system will add a bit of power especially in the cooler months similar to the ram air system.
Thanks Mike... Please post some good pictures when you're doneYup, that's the one. I got the plastic extensions for it from laurel mountain mustang today and managed to get the drivers side tubing fitted to the fender apron, tomorrow I am going to try and fit the passenger side. This system looks like just the ticket for a car with a flat hood and should definately perk things up from just an open air cleaner. The major draw back is having to use 3 1/2" hole saw on my new fender aprons to install the intake tubing, which coincidentally ended up being in the same spot as my 87 mustang was from the factory. It should look sort of original when I finish the install on my 73 restomod
I hope this isn't too far off topic, but I once read a guy built a cold air kit that worked "too well" and at freeway speeds caused a lean condition. If the ram air on out cars really worked (besides adding a little cooler air) wouldn't we experienced something similar?
