I wish somebody would design a RamAir system for the H3. Too bad the throttle body faces sideways. But, there are always ways. Hmm Maybe I will do that. Nothing some sheet metal can't do right? Although, I have one of those hand rivetters and still haven't tried it yet. I think I have a new project

don't forget the duct tape. cheaper and easier to work with than bondo . . . .

And, of course, a magnet.
Actually, if you modified the air intake duct on the passenger side next to the window, and cut a wide narrow hole in the front, and sealed off the little holes where the air comes in, that technically would be Ram Air, well, kinda
It wouldn't do much good though considering it has to travel forward to the air box. BUT, maybe, just maybe........

Im sure it would mostly be for looks. There are other things that will be submerged first that will stop you but for a moving stream crossing it might be nice. I have heard lots of theories on how hard the engine would have to suck to get air. Then of course it looks cool. The Aussies love them. You might get less dusty air up there. The top accordian piece looks suspiciously like the one from the stock intake. Injection molded looks nice. We need to find out more on this trail. I do fiberglass work but it would take a lot of time to make a mold that would release with that shape. It would have to be at least two pieces. Oooo maybe carbon fiber. Keep looking. Was that at a car show? Where did you find the pictures? Give me some clues.............I will help.
