Anyone done this on a nova? I have no inner fenders up front and im thinking about fabing a ram air setup starting under the front bumper on the driverside, running a 3" tube to a high flow filter and then to a carb bonnet\hat, looking for input on that and i have a couple ?'s in the drivetrain section too...... Thanks all

i'm going with a Ram-Air set up... had the core support mod'd for dual 4" inlets... one each side of the radiator...

I have a Ram Air system on my '70 Nova. There are pictures of it on my webshots page (link in my sig). The company to check out is www.ramairbox.com

This is the one I prefer:

It is the plenum air cleaner...air is pulled from the cowl itself below the windshield.

Since my fire wall has holes in that area, it just makes it easier to cut...although the ~900 dollar price is too much too stomach!

take a look at the ram air box site that was posted above... isn't the part #14x3C similar to what yer lookin' at at the crossram site ???

cool stuff by the way, and yes, a bit of change for what they have.... i bookmarked it in case i win the lottery ;)
Shifty: Similar, but one is OEM styled and the other follows the same functionality.

I prefer the authentic although I would image the aftermarket is more power producing and certainly better HP for the dollar.

:D
i have a 77, so my core doesnt have room on the driverside, i thought about doing something like that on the passenger side with a single 4", but wasnt sure if it would flow enough air
Hey TJ what kind of hood are you using with your set up?
Nice work,looks great.
