I would be worried about the appearance with the air filter on or off the car. Its about a bunch of guys standing around a car with the hood poped drinking beer and taking about carz. Thats why the carb must look good...........

I swear, when that car leaves you guys 50 car lengths back in the 1/4, you won't be complaining about his carb color then.

Those are the oil breathers.

This guy is at the car show pretty much every month. We have a pretty big show the last saturday of every month. I'll see if I can get him to devulge his 1/4 mile times. I have a full size pic that could be used as a desktop if anyone is interested PM me.
He has a huge cowl induction hood on it from what I saw.
Here are some other cars of interest from the car show.
3rd Gen Camaro with a 350. Note how he cut the hood to make his hood louvers functional.
Nice 2nd Gen with a Big Block
The Almighly Z06. 50th Anniversary Edition to boot! This thing is worth some serious money.
AMC Delorian. He said he uses oven cleaner to clean stainless body of the car.
Wicked paint on a Fullsize Club cab C3500. The blue making tape is on the rear fenders to prevent rock chips as he drives to minor car shows, I had asked him about it.
TransAm12sec What does he do for hood clearence?
