may not look like much but it works great.you could run some actual good mandrel bent piping of course which would be ideal.i plan on it once i get my turbo on.

along with heavy Maine snow accumulation (well not so much this year! that was nice.) snow never gets in the tube.always high and dry.
that sure is a very popular concern gibbsdakota.a popular fear im afraid.
of course we know they used to do this on the 60's muscle cars and we never heard about rain water locking up engines or anything due to cowl induction.funny how some will duct a straight tube right at the grill headed right directly into any rain and yet that doesn't seem to ever concern anyone in the ram air threads.interesting isn't it when ya think about it?
i guess folks are thinking about the entire cowl actually filling up with rain water (impossible even with a garden hose on full,let alone rain.you won't even make it to 1/32 of a inch deep.try it lol) and the cowl duct is up a few inches from the bottom.

not true, i have seen them plugged up due to leaves and such.
my father 86's cowl loves to collect leaves (it is the one with the large slots)
now the one on my 87 has little holes that should prevent that.
air rams also run up hill normally.
either way i would do it i would try and make a low spot where water could pool and drain out before it gets to the air filter.
