Hey all, i have a few queries. Is there a twin snorkel type air filter setup that you can run with a carbie (holley 600) that draws in cold air from the front of the car. I heard murmurs that such a thing existed, if so could someone tell me the name and price, that would be great.
Also, i know that reduction pulleys (dont know if thats the right name) work great with injected commodores by reducing the speed that the water pump and alternator spin at high rpm, thus reducing drag on the engine, and thus giving a noticable gain in power. Are they also compatible with older engines, eg my 308, and how much $$ also.
As always you guys rock, and your help is greatly appreciated!!
Cheers!!!

Cheers for the reply Paul! Looks like im going to build one now all custom. Making a fibreblass setup that has the snorkels going under the the car, so should get both cold air and a rammed air effect! Should be cheaper than $300 and more effective.
