dual snorkel vs. cowl hood

I was wondering what would give me better flow to my carb. I have a dual snorkel stock set up but I also have a 4 inch cowl hood. Would a large air cleaner on my cowl hood let more air in or would the dual snorkel set up? Thanks

I think either one will be more than sufficient.

This is just me but i would go with the 4" cowl hood. my resoning for this is you could put a big open element air cleaner in there and the hood would look cool too. I am not a big fan of the dual snorkel set up, personaly i think the look kind of goofy. Dont take that personal you dual snorkel guys people think my car looks way goofyer than any air cleaner set up.
