Almost a year late, but.... engine masters did a aircleaner and filter shootout, with 19 different combos, on a 750 hp bbc. A single 2 1/2 x 6 1/2 cost 140 hp. EM said it might support 250 hp with no loss of hp. (so, how much for a pair?) Also part of the test was a Mopar dual snorkel. With one...

Not quite, but close. In the pilot, he drove a Ferrari, first couple seasons a Tiger, fitted out like James Bond's Aston Martin. Then an Opel GT, and a Karmann Ghia, I don't recall the order of the last two. I was always disappointed by "The Saint's" choice. A Volvo? Really? Edit. Thinking about...

I'm gonna cut a hole in the trunk I can drive a truck thru. The last time I did that (the car I threw away) I didn't cut a big enough hole to be convenient. Not gonna make that mistake again.

Wow! AR was using "offset" that far back? I am surprised! The pair of Ansens I have could easily be mistaken for TT's, except for cast-in info on the back, just like those Americans.

My opinion only. There's not a car made that doesn't look better with TT's on it.

Amazing. I've got a 62, and a set of polished TT's for it, with new slicks... and a set of 200s's and a pair of Ansen five spokes (mentioned in the article) in the to-be-restored pile as well. I'm a huge fan of daisies, since two lane blacktop.

I think it's worth more than that, to a guy with a Sixpack in a non-sixpack car, who wants an aircleaner but doesn't need a specific high dollar piece.

Wait, wait. I HAVE heard one . Wasn't there a big r&r hit by "Question Mark, and the Mysterions"? Yep! "96 tears".

I've seen em. Never heard one......

Some gear sets are just garbage, no matter how well they are set up. But my friend who owned a rearend shop (street cars and race cars) refused to use synthetic gear oil. Would not offer ANY warrantee if the customer insisted. Used Torco Dino oil by the 55 gallon drum. Before I did anything...

I would look into taking the tailpipe over the rear, and then side exit behind the rear tires. Gotta go between frame and spring? Been done! But I agree with 6pkrtse, it's probably not your tailpipes causing the problem. It's probably a garbage in-tank pump. I DESPISE in-tank pumps, and no car...

Yep. Before or after the crash? Who knows!

I thought lower backs were lumbar? I guess I'll need to carry on than.

Theoretically, 255s will be just under an inch wider in section. Turn your fronts lock to lock see if you have clearance for a half inch more tire in both directions. And the 4 1/4" on your wheels is backspace. Offset is a WHOLE different thing. P.S. love the daisies!

Decals look right for an A12. Somebody just made a $2000 aircleaner into a $100 aircleaner.
