Default carb dual snorkel modifications

just wondering if anyones seen or done any modifications to the dual snorkle air intake. I dont want to ditch it because i just have a stock hood. Cars an 85 302 with a holley 4160. Ive converted to the 87-93 GT front bumper, but dont have the fog light set up for weight reasons. Does anyone think I would get any better air if I plumbed the snorkels to the fog light holes? Right now their at about 45 degrees towards the ground in the fender.

Default RE: carb dual snorkel modifications

You will pickup some air, put also some water/dust/ whatever else that decides to climb in there(squirrels....field mice) If you did that, I would drill a couple little holes a little ways back, near where it bends so water can drain, and put a steel mesh or something like that to keep out leaves, rocks, and little animals
