   Being as how I'm firmly NA, I've received one message
"loud and clear": take extra care to make my intake path as
smooth and unrestricted as I possibly can.

Great.  I'm glad to see that some of my babble will reduce the pain and suffering of others :-)
 
BTW, I've decided to make an airbox that will bolt to the TB, and incorporate the airhorns that are currently in place.  It will have a 3" inlet duct going back to the right radiator duct if possible.  If I can't fit the 3" duct under the radiator, then I'll have to make a new scoop.  Just won't know until I get the parts in hand.  I'm (stubbornly) going to continue trying to use CEET (lower temp, cheaper SCEET) tubing, even though it has some turbulent flow when bent.  If it works well, I'll eventually fit a smooth tube of some type. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty (running out of rev numbers)
