Trying to get some idea of inlet air temperatures, what temps are you guys seeing with your systems? My engine compartment is pretty tight with a 383 stuffed in there, the air cleaner is riding tight up against my hood. Wondering if re-positioning wouldn't be a bad idea, something like a cold air intake type system. It's been a pretty hot summer in the midwest this year.

Thanks...

Mine is typically a little bit higher than outside air temp but I have a sealed six pack hood on my duster. When I changed from the original steel hood and open element air cleaner the car had a noticeable improvement in overall engine response. I'm sure I was in the mid 100s of intake temp prior. There are some good threads on the intake/air cleaners too
