Intake Setup
This might be a retarded question, but i know these engines struggle to get enough air, but can you get too much air? Im asking because while thinking about what i want to do for my intake setup a sortve "outside the box" Idea came to me, that being running two intakes that come into a T pipe the usual one sitting in a boxed in area where the driver side battery usually goes, and the other one in the same sortve general area but on the other side. Would this be too much? Would it even make a hill of beans difference? Do you guys know of people that have done this?

Sall good on the thread jacking 
You guys helped me alot. But i was looking for a little more technical as far as what ratio of air to fuel mixture i should have, doesnt make much difference i have no way to test but it would still be kind of cool to know.

Theoretically, unless you have a turbo your not going to get too much air. Diesels can in fact run as lean as 100:1 though i doubt ours can with a relatively primitive injection system. Fuel is used for throttling, more air plus more fuel is more power plus more air and more fuel and you eventually wind up with one of them 1500hp monsters flowing 900cc fuel and 100lbs boost. There may have been some engine mods in there too who knows..
