Ram air carb?

[89cordlx]

is it possible to somehow make my stock carb into some sort of ram air? like if I take off the whole box thingy, and put some sort of scoop on the hood and takes air through there and into the carb. no a direct you know ram but more air possabilities. and if it's a dumb idea tell me and I'll shut up :D

Some one on the board has this, I think it is A20A1. I saw a hood scoop on his car.

I know it is definitely possible, it's just time and money your willing to put into it.

it took some time like 2 days

the first thing i did i drew a outline
then cut the out side w/an air saw
and folded the sheet metal down
cut some xtra metal for the sides
and welded did some body work and painted

it is faster if u work in a body shop!:D

Nice work, so is the carburetor connected in some sort of way to the hood? do you have pics inside the engine bay?

[hondaman87]

the carb is right under the scoop will get pics soon

What about water getting in there? Do you have a problem with that?

[hondaman87]

nah a little bit of water is good because it cleans the cylinder head from carbon it a old trick i learned from school


but other than that it drives fine

What do you do for an air cleaner?
