Photobucket won't work on my phone , would the air pipe from the hat going to the air box be affected if the bow or curve in the pipe sat higher than the carby hat ? |

Not at all. With my body lift I had to modify the hat so it was almost a 180 degree bend from carby hat to air box. |

I have flexy piping from the hat to the box frOm the hat so it doesn't matter if that's higher in any spots |

What makes you think that it is sucking enough air? Are you having problems with how the car runs? Like revs dieing down.. Car not starting?? |

This cold weather and high speeds can freeze the carby jets. I had to run my Sierra with snorkle turned off, thus sucking warm air from under bonnet, when weather was this cold. Stopping for a minute, heat from donk would rise and melt blockage, then off I went. |
