As an "other",
1. My ram induction air system contains no filter or alternate air
intake. If I operated in a dustier climate I would have to completely
rebuild the induction system with a filter.
2. The aft end of the cowl inlet is two inches from the leading edge
of the fiberglass tube that is bolted to the forward mounted throttle
body. The connection is made with heavy rubber plumber's sleeve.
This results in smooth induction system walls.
3. The rubber sleeve is hose clamped to the fiberglass tube.
When the cowl is put on, one must reach into the inlet and manipulate the
leading edge of the sleeve over the inlet. Under certain conditions
(racing) I have hose clamped the front end of the sleeve.
So many ways to skin this cat.
