Not the air cleaner assembly but just the scoop part. How does it activate? any special parts? any info would help. thanks Henry Exceptional Architectural, Yacht and Automotive scale models. e-mail modelmakerinc@att.net for a portfolio review. www.modelmakerinc.com

An ignition activated electrical solenoid valve on the open circuit would bleed off the �open� vacuum side when ignition was off, and switch left in the open position, allowing a actuator mounted spring to close the door. The system runs off a vacuum reservoir and is not responsive to changes in manifold vacuum directly. 1972 Road Runner GTX 440 6bbl 5-speed [img]http://72rrgtx.com/carpics/bucket/DSC06730r-1.jpg[/img]

The 71-72� Dodge Ram Charger system was basically the same system as the 70-72� Plymouth Air Grabber. 1972 Road Runner GTX 440 6bbl 5-speed [img]http://72rrgtx.com/carpics/bucket/DSC06730r-1.jpg[/img]
