| Well the box was actually polished alloy but I had to cut a hole in the top to put the ram tubes on. I ended up making a checker plate lid (although a total polished box looks better). Basically I cut the holes in the side of the box for the carbs and just bolted it to the carbs like you would ram tubes. Just made a gasket up and away you go. Not very tricky. For your set up, being a down draft you made need to make a box and mount it in the corner behind the head light and just run a pipe up on to the carb. Similar to a VL commodore setup. When your driving cold air is being forced in and providing it's air tight it has no where to go except in to the carb. Even when on idle the carby can only suck air from the box which is picking up cold air from outside the engine bay. Tip you will need to re-tune your carb once the box is on. Any other questions let me know |
