So I am growing tired of my oval air cleaner. I never really liked it in the first placee. My car has the engine compartment painted grabber blue and I'm running 180's with a four barrel carb. I would like to design / install a rear facing scoop sort of what they use on the blown dragsters but rear facing. This is just an idea. I am looking for input. Picts would be helpful. I remember seeing a member installed a forward facing scoop in the roof. Looks cool but too much for my car. What do you guys think?

Here is what I am using on my Pantera. It is a Spectre air box with an offset base. It clears the rear deck and the side air scoops work. I just ran a data log on the ECU and the inlet air temperature is almost the same as ambient.

Can we see a picture of the intakes from the outside of the car?

JFFR - Would you post the part number for the Spectre air box that you are using? I have a lower manifold, the Blue Thunder. Based on your experience with their parts, which model would you recommend. I am building the same configuration as yours with 4" intakes. In hindsight, would you have considered the customizable solution the offer to more precisely aim the snorkels? Thanks
