    I've had this pic saved for quite a while, and I have no idea who's car it is. If it's yours, do you mind answering a few questions about your ram air setup? Such as;
    How do you like the way it works?
    What keeps the water and bugs out of your air filter?
    What kind if breather set up are you using there? Is that homemade (breather base/ foam, etc.)?

    Any further info on construction, ect. much appreciated. Thanks for your help, in advance. Sincerely; John B.

    scoop

    easy the hood seals around the air cleaner housing and forces the air to be routed thru the air filter.

    Sorta off topic, but I have always wondered what a shaker would look like on a mav.

    It looks like a couple posts got erased, but to whom ever (sorry I don't remember) was saying they had pictures of a 71 Torino shaker assembly on their son's Grabber, I would love to see them. I know others would like to see them as well. I have an extra hood, but not the funds now to do it, but maybe later. :D Thanks.
