doesnt it make you wonder just a little, if it actually works
hahahaha how did you find that

anyway besides that supercharger by sears idea whats with the upside down air cleaner lid, ive heard of people doing this besides dr frnakenstein, is that really a mod

 

Haha, so bored I just looked at random 3rd Gens on CarDomain...

I think the flipped lid is supposed to let more air in because we all know how restrictive the stock TBI inlet is. I wouldn't do it though --- ghetto, minimal gains, chance of some debri going through the TB, etc.

Good logic, but who in their right mind says,

:RedneckVoice: "Hey lets throw that there leaf blower on this here Camaro and watch her run real fast, like them duke of hazard boys. Hardy Har." :RedneckVoice:

 

I had an '84 pontiac parisienne (caprice)... 305 w/ Q-Jet. I flipped the air lid... The lid on mine was lipped...so the inner circle of the lip (when flipped upside down) would still make a semi-decent seal with the inside of the air filter wall. Soooo, believe it or not, it was able to suck air down directly into the filter. Not a dramatic performance increase, no, but it was better then it running through the big hose. :-P


It also made a cool suctiony noise, as he described... well worth every "penny".

No, I'm not justifying redneck logic. But it was fun at the time.

 

So is that thing right hand drive or what?

 

By golly, it is! From OK too

Trying to get performance from a Parisienne... *shakes head*

 

Haha...as sad as it is to say, my friend had an '87 Z28 (305 TPI)...and the parisienne would walk him to 40 every single time.

 

poor poor LB9.

 

doesnt that upside dow lid cancel out lmsot any of the pressureised air that is being forced into the intake by the leaf blower?

i mean if the leaf blower is forcing air down in therre through the hose wouldnt all the pressure escape from the gap ?

if he flipped the lid back over to make a seal.... if the thing worked at all... it would work 10x better wouldnt it?

 

I`ve got a big block in mine what mph blower do you guys think i`ll need? Wadda think toro or weed eater?

Some of it. Figure the "blower" is probably pushing more air in than can escape through the crack. But you are right, flip it over and, by logic, she'd run much quicker. Kind of like having a small gap in the piping going from turbo to intake...

 

Just another way for Fourth gens to make fun of the third gen........I hate idiots that do things like that. ok all better now

Later

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! Thats pure hick for ya. HAHAHA ill be laughin all day because of this.

 

thats just sickening almost as sickening as it being right hand drive and in oklahoma.

 

i think the image is just reversed, zoom in on the guage cluster
