PapaCreech replied to gretchen/jason's topic in Miscellaneous Tech
ill try to get some pics taken today tomorrow this weekend just got in from work, gonna have a busy week, but verbal explanation goes liek this. The scoop is about 4 1/2 inches wide and runs the bredth of the frame. The ending lip (which is aimed into the bay) is about 3 inches behind crossmember. so far no flapping issues have had it on for abotu 2 weeks now. I know it will blow the rain that falls infrotn of the cowl straight onto the window now, so its pushing lots more air then before. thanksFor the interest! -

Fuel injected my friend -
Well to make a long story short about 3 days ago i went to crank my car, and poof my car dissapeared in a cloud of Wonderful smoke. I then turned it off scratched my head and cussed, pulled plugs and they were fine. So i went to crank it again and this time had horrible misses after a few moments plus the wonderful smoke and smell of unburned fuel. Consulted with some friends and we then all scratched our heads, and while staring at a haynes manual waiting for the z gods to show me the way, i remembered that overlooked little valve. . . Pulle4d out my lovely little 30 year old Pcv and proceeded to inspect it. Guess what i found? The small cylinder inside of it was gummed shut, and nonmoving replaced and ran, smelled, drove great. So remember It may be small but very very important. LOL just my dumb ass moment for the year! THanks for reading

hmm i cowled mine but have the cowl moved out about 5inches from the window aways from static zone b/c after i upgraded my ignition system and headers bla bla bla i was having heating issues. I put the cowl on then in the way it hsould have been close to the window, no good. Sold that cowl to some mustang kids and bought a smaller sitck on AVS single hood scoop. Turned it around backwards, moved out away from static zone. Then made sheet metal scoops under the engine bay(risky but effective) to push air up around headers and block and out through the now *sucking* cowl(i try tostay off rocky roads and or large potholes os water and speedbumbs dotn want to chance throwing something up in there that would be bad ) . Works fairly well was heating to over 200+ every drive now i run 180 to 190 on nice hot georgia days just me 2 pennies on it! -
LOL i removed my drivers side one no prob then cut my passenger side one off check out my pics to see finished project (well finished for now )
-
hmm if you do that, eeeek, then you could bum 6bux off someone and go t advance or pepboys or whatever and buy a small bolt on turndown and that should help but thats only IF you do that, id just wait until you could buy a new muffler or build an exhaust.
-
hmm you could probally fab one with a little time and stubborness and luck. . . did i mention luck? or buy the coupe version and fab off it make a mold and sell to all of us 2/2 guys out here
