      It's not functional to pull in cool air from the cowl area, but is forced to use the hotter air from the engine bay.

      It's very nice, but the shape of the DSE car’s assembly is more pleasant to the eye (at least mine). I guess because the one is a nice smooth curve versus a more abrupt flare out. Might just be me.

      For sure the DSE looks much better, maybe just copy it but make it funtional.

      This air cleaner looks really cool but it obviously is just for looks. I vaguely remember the guys at Campbell Auto Restoration made a reproduction of an original Camaro cowl induction air cleaner. I may be way off base. Maybe it was a real one they had laying around.

      I knew you would chime in. I recall the one I saw was REAL nice.

      It pretty much looks like this:
