like almost every other car out there !! Besides, an efi adjusts for all that.


That it does, but it still reduces air density and therefore power.


The car has a/c, I doubt the small loss of power would be a concern. Personal experience tells me to keep everything under the hood and out of plain sight. Nothing attracts destructive morons than stuff peeking out of the hood. You never know when you're going to have to park it somewhere unattended for a while !!


When I sealed the cowl hood to the carb the car ran SO much better, especially in the summer heat 100* days,, A/C ON smile [ drivability, power] AFR's were more stable, the length of the runners is VERY important to my combination, 24" from the back of the intake valve to the end of runner, so yes it will stick out of the hood. I have surgery tomorrow so progress will stop for awhile.
