Gonna try to come up with something a little different here in a couple of days.
I'm just curious, and I understand guys that are running the FTRA and "Chris1313" setup are still getting forced are but your trying to pull that air up from a vacuum? Has anyone cut out like say the license plate area and tried forcing air in that way?
I understand that "some" of the air will hit the bottom radiator dam thing and force it up, but like I stated your still trying to pull from vacuum. Wouldn't it get more forced air if you had it comming though the license plate area?
Maybe someone smarter will chime in...

No it's a aluminum plate with duct connectors bolted into the holes with aluminum tape sealing the inside of the airbox. Aluminum tape is some bad **** it won't hardly come off.....been running it for years since i can't get the foam to stay put at high speeds. By far the best stuff i have tried for sealing the inside of the airbox.

Mie comes off the 4150 throttle body carb hat into a 4" dryer duct (ghetto
) that runs to the front of the radiator and turns down to the area right behind the license plate cover. Washer tank removed. Big K&N filter peeking out of the hole in the face. I have not bothered making a "box" for the filter; if I did it might have some Ram Air effect, but I am not worried about it. I'll try and get a couple pics tomorrow while I am changing my window motors.
