    I can't call this 2 steps back, but last night I figured out why a friend of my runs is 124 hood a little up.

    With new twin setup up is too high with the current filter setup.

    I'm thinking stacks with mesh

    I'm going to check my garage tonight.

    Back in my youth I stuck a K&N cone onto my Cavalier. If I have it still in the garage its game on it not.

    I'll go for the sock approach.

    Hey, looks like one the Grassroots Challenge guys in this years event figured out how to make a FIAT go faster.

    Put a British motor in one!

    Honestly, just kidding. In a million, zillion years, it would have never, ever ocurred to me to put a Sprite engine into a FIAT 500.

    Still, I respect the "MacGyver-ness" of it.
