Chip,

In the back of most import car mags there is an ad from MSDS air intake 
systems.  They now offer a cone filter conversion for 6 cyl bosch air flow 
meters.  Reasonable price I think.  $139.00 approx.  I think Alfisti on this 
list could talk for hours on this topic.  I have a modified 3 litre Milano, 
Sperry cam, modified spark and fuel curve and air flow meter that I may do 
the conversion on.  However, this much I do know. The stock airbox is very 
good and unless you can funnel that cool air from under your passeger side 
headlamp scoop directly into the cone filter I am not sure you will gain.  
The engine compartment is just too damn hot!  I have had racers say cooling 
10 degrees = 1hp! The placement of the cone I would guess is super important. 
As far away from the hot air as possible. Your thoughts?
