[QUOTE="Nelson84, post: 84112, member: 989"] I think that would just suck hot air into your engine from the engine bay. Best to keep the snorkel stock looking thing. There are a few things you can do to get more air to the engine. 1. cut the air lid wide open 2. get a high flow air filter 3. cut the screen out of your MAF sensor 4. relocate the intake air temperature sensor in front of the MAF sensor to give an accurate temp reading for the ecm. when mounted in its original spot it would get hot and the ecm would retard the ignition. 5. clean the radiator to run cooler 6. install air foil. most people say this does nothing but it does help direct air smoothly into the throttle body 7. reroute the coolant hose and bypass the throttlebody, why heat up the throttlebody with warm coolant? 8. low temp thermo stat will keep your engine running cooler. I have a 160 in my 85 and a 180 in my 84 [/QUOTE]
