Neat pictures, I do have one question about the Miata twincam. I know it
isn't your car but... Why would you go through the trouble to put a cold
air induction kit onto an engine and then install the air filter right on
top of the exhaust manifold?!?
Well, the car is originally a Twincam that lost its engine and
brakes/wheels, but is nevertheless worth keeping in good shape in case anyone
in the
future can restore the missing bits. I haven't asked the owner, but I suspect
that
he just didn't want to cut holes in it to run the filter hosing to a nice
cool location, perhaps behind the front apron.
Not sure how I'd have handled it.
