High-Flowing V6 OEM-Style Air Cleaner Lid ... (Page 4/4) 82-T/A [At Work] APR 23, 06:06 PM quote Originally posted by Patrick: It would actually make more sense if those scoops were flipped around and pointed the other way! lol I suppose if the scoops connected (and were sealed to) directly to the top of the air canister, then it definitely would do something for the air intake... but I'd imagine that engine compartment would get kind of hot. 82-T/A [At Work] SEP 16, 10:51 AM Ok, revising this thread because I'm starting to work on this again. I got another air canister... haven't received it yet, but hoping / assuming it's the same diameter as the canister lid on the top of the Firebird V6 air cleaner. From what I can tell, the Firebird actually has two air inlets on the air cleaner... one (which comes in from the bottom like the Fiero V6's air cleaner), and the black plastic "hood" on the top. And then, it connects in a similar way to how the Fiero V6's throttle body connects, with a big tube off the side. The Fiero's V6 canister "appears" taller, but I won't know until I get it in the mail. When I look at, for example, the air intake on the side of the Fiero's air intake panel, the diameter of the inlet (from the water separator), is more or less the same diameter as the throttle body (probably a little bit bigger). I'm not sure there's any huge difference going to be made here, but I like the idea of more air at wide open throttle, than what is currently available to the engine. I'll have a 3.4 V6/60 at that point, and my hope is to keep it looking relatively stock looking... but upgrading with things that are OEM looking. I've got a bored TB, and I'll have the DAWG mod done. As 85 Fiero GT said above, at WOT, there is less vacuum, and during idle, there is more vacuum. So, I'll want to build a little flap that gets installed behind that air cleaner cover "awning" that's closed during idle, and open during WOT. I found this little A/C vacuum solenoid, which... I don't know which direction it works. But I can either have it push or pull a spring-loaded flap. So that's something I'm looking to do. I think it'll look decent under the engine vent, and I don't think it's really going to cause an issue with rain. To be honest, I doubt I'll ever drive the car in the rain anyway since we're in 2025, and it's a 38 year old car.
