Default Re: 1969 Camaro Cowl Induction Hood Functionality????

I wanna say I simply have it wired open, but I honestly don't remember at the moment...I'm not a betting man, but if I was, I'd put my money on the cowl induction unit any day. You can hear it drawing air while it's idling...and drawing fresh air is gonna be better than drawing engine compartment air. [I should also note, I have the air horn blocked off, so it *has* to draw fresh air.]

That's pretty cool that you can hear it drawing air. That probably means that it functions quite fine. I had a 1970 Buick GS with the fresh air hood and I always thought it was cool that you could hear the scoop openings hissing as they sucked in fresh air.
