SawzAll fixes that frisky RamAir!

[PeteLaurel@domain.elided]

Really late on this debate, but thought I'd throw in my two bits.

I had a '70 Pontiac GTO with Ram Air. We have a '69 GTV. I had a '74 Berlina 
parts car with "Alfa Ram Air." To my untrained eye, they looked effectively 
the same (forcing cold air into the intake when moving). This is different 
than the shaker hood scoops on Pontiacs of the 1970's that used a venturi 
effect to suck air in. But hey, I've already butchered enough fluid dynamics 
and turbo machinery at this point, so I'll get back to the SawzAll.

I went to APE, they SawzAll-ed a ram air duct off a doner Alfa, and after 
much hacking, sanding, welding, filing, base coating, poof! FrankenAlfa lives 
again! Much less cost than the Quadraflow, and plus I got to use all those 
power tools. Excellent!
