Default TPI induction.....

Thanks to Durango here, I now have a stockish rubber hose going from a TPI tbody to a ~3" round cylinder....NOW, I need to get that 3" round rubber fitting to go over top of my modded (flattened) top of the stock radiator support....which will be cut out for clearance so the tube needs be flattened for the up/over part....the rubber hose can be also flattened, I see no sin.....

then i'ts back to ~3" round fitting to a dual snorkel intake....

so I know I will have to articulate the hood hinges to raise and move forward with the hood to allow clearance with hood in up position....

I can figger summfin out about that....I know there is NO way to get anything here over THAT problem....but that over top/rad tube/hose is the issue for now....

any help, anyone??

DB, thanks, I got a email to him now....it well MAY be what I need....

I suspect it's just hose couplings though, not the airbridge....

slightly ambiguous....
