Ok, I was standing there holding the hood open on my 89 IROC, becuz the pistons dont hold it up anymore.. but thats another story... and i'm looking at the plenum... and how cool it looks.. thinking about how I could get it and my SLP runners to stick through the hood, when it hit me...

on some older cars, they had flaps that opened facing the windshield... due to the large amount of air that gets blown down the hood when moving forwards right?

 

opps, that sucked, hit the wrong keys... but.. anyways...

would it be possible to remove the plenum, and put it in backwards.. with a type of induction that faces the windshield?

I dont plan on doing this or anything... but it looks like it would work... it would deffinetly be different...

Owner of a 1989 IROC-Z Camaro, a.k.a. "The Babe Magnet". Painted a cheap metallic blue that chips off all too easily and covers over the IROC-Z decals on the doors, also has non-leaking T-tops, ps, pw, power rear hatch, working A/C. Mods: SLP intake runners, gutted MAF sensor, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, modified air spoil, 3.27 posi rear end.
Broken stuff: rear spoiler brake light, driver side lock, power antenna, tilt steering, rear end bushings, cracked passanger side ground effect, washer fluid tab, leaking exhaust and a rotted through muffler that sparks when the car bottoms out while driving like any 17 year old does.

 

I think the engine sits back to far. The intake opening would probably be right at the firewall
