Talking Intake Swap..

Decided to make it look retro..
















I still have to tune it and all that stuff..runs a little rich at idle so far..I dont have the Wideband in it yet so the laptop shows default numbers.

It sounds like a vacuum cleaner..

I pulled the Hood Insulation off and cut it out to clear the Hat..this setup completely fits under the stock Hood.

Thats awesome. Not a huge fan of the Monte front ends but your car pulls it off very well. I was very tempted to do a similair setup w/ my Cutlass. Any details on the engine/trans setup?
