Functional Cold Air Intake on a TPI 383.
Built this after a few trips to the auto wrecker. Has a hole cut in the rad support so it sucks cold air from behind the grille. Should work good and sound great too.

Re: Functional Cold Air Intake on a TPI 383.
Not bad.
I just said screw it, and bought the stuff I need for speed density, lol My MAF was a big pain in the butt, and I don't think it worked anyways.

Re: Functional Cold Air Intake on a TPI 383.
How thin/thick is the material? It looks thin and may conduct heat to the point that it makes it inefficient like a regular intake. Would it be a good idea to get something to wrap it? Something that looks good since your engine compartment looks good.
Not trying to rain on your parade just brainstorming. Good idea.

Re: Functional Cold Air Intake on a TPI 383.
That looks pretty good! I know when I did a cold air intake on my vette, the difference was definitely noticeable, especially the sound!
