Kinsler with fresh air box integrated into Can AM
Discussion
Several folks have asked about pictures of the airbox we built to allow you to stuff a Kinsler stack system with radius plates into a can am. This unit mates to a custom enclosure on the inside of the rear lid and then seal off the hot engine air from the intake side of the outside air. There is an access panel to allow the linkage to be adjusted without removing the unit. Here are a few pics for reference.
I will post shots of the female mating piece when bonded into the rear deck in a couple of days.

Nice work.
The fresh air box idea seems to make a lot of sense given the under bonnet temperatures, and the problems with mixture if you forced air into the carb directly from a scoop.
I Now know that the Holley carb is designed to not allow ram air to lean it out as it has some sort of air release thing.... at least that's what I am told by the experts.
Nice peice of Kingsler kit though, we'd better not let clive see this or he may have an accident
Hows that twin Turbo kit comming on?
Andy -
The twin turbo is coming along fantastic.
I will have pictures of the install of the C5R motor and water intercooler manifold during the coming weeks. This model does not yet have our billet throttle body attached to the Carbon Fiber intercooler cover, but you can see where it goes. Also the manifold is reversable so you can have the throttle body as a back-drafter for the Ultimas. This particular pic is for a different car
We are taking the Kinsler injected engine mentioned above in the CanAM to the chassis dyno in a few weeks (with the new AFR210 mated headers), we are anxious to see real rear wheel horsepower. The engine dyno revealed 600hp at 6500 rpm and 597ft/lbs of torque

Why did nearly all the american muscle cars of the 70's have ram air with carbs, some with Holleys?
They had to discontinue their use mainly due to evaporative emissions.
I'm nearly finished with my LS6 ram air system.
I'll post pics if anyone's interested.

Can you explain the term evaporative emissions? I think I know what you mean though.
As promised, here is a shot of the manifold that is water intercooled for the twin turbo on the C5R motor going together.
The entire piece is bolt together, with o-rings, cnc billet and anodized, and the intercooler is sufficient for 1200hp should anyone be crazy enough to want it
Still to finish up - plumbing, new throttle bodies and fuel rails, in addition to custom airboxes.
