Air pan question

You could always use some solid rod stock.

I'm going to be building a plate for the 63 and plan on attaching it to the fiberglass hood.
I'll take images as I build it. Should be pretty simple
The material will be much lighter that what a sign is made of.

heres an old pic :

you can see the strap in the scoop it dont slow the air down

I use the Moroso air pan and never had anything but the hood pushing down on foam holding it. I did notice that from time to time it would rotate a little so I put a strap on it that slids down over the bowl vent tube to keep it straight.

I can get you one but I don't get home till around 8:30pm.

Don't let me forget

Any concern over running without the air filter? Would one of the better filters (K&N) be a restriction?

Hey I remembered

Single Holley

Dual Holley

Dominator

I use an air cleaner to hold mine on. The foam strips are the ones used to seal window A/C units to window openings. They've been trimmed to the contour of the hood and then glued to the air pan (.040 aluminum sheet I think).

The air cleaner base is riveted to the pan.

I use air cleaner spacers glued together to get the right height for the assembly. As you can see, the upper one has been shortened.

Here's a pic through the scoop opening. For the rare occasion when I have driven it in the rain, I have a spare air cleaner base so that I can plug the scoop and remove the air pan. The filter is a K&N 14x3, and there was no performance change when tested with/without the filter (345ci, 6.90s/11.0s). When I build a stroker, I will use the filter top and a taller element if necessary to keep the restriction down.

just fabbed up an air pan for my dart . Here is a pic
