Air Intake

Alright so I've got a 1995 F250 extended cab long bed 4x4 and with gas on the rise i figured i would try and get better fuel economy, well i upgraded to a CAI and that helped slightly, then the roller coaster of tubing the stock intake was like. Well to go even further i wanted to take the funnel i suppose you could call it that sits under the hood and sips at air between the hood and body and move it to the side next to the radiator and an hour or 2 later it doesnt look too promising, does anyone know of a way to possibly make a scoop rain proof, or a way they have fixed their air intake that made significant improvement to their truck.
Thanks

There are so many threads discussing many of your questions.
First I'll say, the 460 and 300-6 takes air from beside the radiator.
Second, I hope you've tried the search feature. As long as you're not on an iPhone, it works rather well.
