Wow that looks like the old innovate message board cast of characters. I learned a lot there about emulsion, air bleeds, IFR mods, and holley tuning in general.

I went ahead and did the lazy thing and bought a setup. Dual 4” oiled cone filters into a tidy but not too small plenum. Hopefully it will smoothly feed plenty of air and fit ok.

I guess I will have a little modern bling under there after all. It’ll look awesome with the hood down! It is also a bonus that I get to keep my cabin vent scoop.
