I dont have pictures, but the most common is a spray bar in the intake and the solenoids hidden in the bottom of the intake, alot of tunnel ram intakes use that

This makes it easy to go stealthy:

That is about as stealthy as it gets...I think that is a NOS TopShot.

Lets assume Nova=Chevy Gen 1 small or Big block.

Under manifold fogger feed lines out the back of the liter Vally (is very tight over flywheel. Must have reinforced bellhousing as lines will exit through housing into interior of car.

Or 9 Volt system that shoots into the carb with 2 Lb bottle all in the hood which is 100% invisiable when hood is off. Cause its not there....

The sneaky pete system is clean looking install but not really hidden well

yes im aware of the bellhousing issue, and that is why that system if iffy for me, and my car has a Carb'ed LT1 in it

A bit of advice. Keep the solinoids out of the heat and keep the hit soft. Too hard of a hit and it wont matter how well its hidden

Some of the best were Billy Glidden and Jerry Eckman in NHRA Pro Stock

Here is my set up... it's not really hidden completely but most people dont expect it on a blown engine. behind the belt tension plate.

Good for the last second emergency's. lol

WE did one on a guys car and we milled the holes in back intake rail, then mated the port with tubes ran under the intake and solenoids under it also in a small aluminum box to protect them.
We used Durafix welding rods to "repair" the aluminum where needed and the tubes to the solenods were hand formed galvanized which the Durafix rods do weld together for more strength.
I had pics but think they we were on old hard drive that died but Ill look for them.

Well remember Bob Glidden getting caught? Same idea, the bottle was hidden in the hood. They had some setup to connect to car, the noses ran to back of the block, through the bellhousing flange, to the intake rail accross the back and tied into the intake. This is where we got the idea.
Ever see old Chevy blocks with holes in those rails? Drill through a prescribed amount, then bore from back of block. Screw in a pipe plug into a hole tapped into bellhousing and run it to firewall. Enough hoses it will get lost in the "clutter" Trust me we ran a small sneaky pete system similarly for a little top end boost when match racing and dealing for starts. when Goodyear still made Eagle STs you could roast them down and tada sticky street slicks.
Think of it this way, if you have sheet metal intake who is gonna check THICKNESS of the sheet metal.
Bought an intake few years ago and it was aid to come from Gliddens shop, and it had a 1/4" piece of sheet with a long 1/8" hole through it and it intersected in the rail area, but after little running if we would get lean issues but it would go away,,,well after pulling intake for umpteenth time local welder offered to reweld all seam as we may have crack then we found hole, he cut sheet out, we had never even paid attention as the 1/8" hole on rail side had silicone in it so we left it, turns out it would suck in silicone, leak then suck up some more.
Kind of lends credence to rumors. I still am looking for those pics but have suspicions they are on dead hard drive and its mia.
Its not hard you just gotta know what your working with and how to tune for it (ie lean mixtures.
