Here's part 2: Fiat Coupe Airbox (Part 2 - Fiberglass)
As for the area above the intake (I call the intake "head" clearance) there is very little room on the coupe. The front carb is especially tight, about 1.75" The rear could be about 3" but I decided it would be best to be symmetrical.
We made custom "low" air horns 0.450" tall (+.250" for the baseplate). It is my belief, however, that air horn height is only useful for tuning intake runner length. I see little to no evidence of power or flow increase beyond a nice radius'ed inlet.

Jeff,
I didn't think it would be possible to make your engine bay look any better than it did 2 years ago when you had the FI and "clear" air box set up, but it sure does! Amazing work you and Jason have done.

Hey Jason. This filter is amazing, can it fit a 124 spider? Let us know the price of the all kit and what the dino test will tell.
Great job as usual.
