I need to do something like that for my Hemi, I was going to use the metal aircleaner base to make a fiberglass one then use it to modify for my Holley carbs. Another project on the list of TODO's

Please explain - "the only factory system with a seal to the air cleaner".
Not getting it either . Didnt the race/scoop setups use a cross ram with velocity stacks sealed to underside of bonnet cut oyt holes ? Tex

Tex The factory WO/RO 23 system used an aluminum plate the required cutting essentially all of the hood bracing out, indeed, it didn't have any provision for an air cleaner, race only, no good for a street car.

I would like to see the modifications to fit the carbs with the base. I have to do something similar with my Hemi with the stageV intake and Holleys. Tim

I have one more day off and am spending it wisely. Here I am building a mock up of the "A12 wall". This will be recreated in 18 gauge steel and welded in place. The rubber seal goes on the top lip. I need to give credit to Tommy theChryco. He had the best deal on the parts and made sure I had them before my Christmas break. I assume you are making the "wall" out of some sort of high density foam to seal to the hood and allow some flex for engine movement and still stay sealed up.
