[QUOTE="joedrum, post: 122541, member: 98"] i have found with the grab bar runners ....that it is very easy to tell whats going on inside the runners with just a touch on the runners ....it seems there is merit to the reverse way of looking at this .... my set up is insulated close to the type 4 with the hose connectors about half way down the runners .....and the other half is open to the head .... it seems to help the charge ... some what like a intercooler does in a supercharger set up .... this means the charge is cooler and more dense ...witch makes the charge more powerful than if it was heated up more .... the thin but strong grab bar stainless steel runners really makes this principal work the best as to cooling the charge....so i am on a completely different page from what everyone else is thinking .....i have a car that is supercharge and intercooled ....its not running right now but i have years of experience with ....and the similarities of this car and hooches runners are about the same ... on the car when the charge comes out on the air to air intercooler it is about the same as the hooch is and cool right to manifold entry .... this car is a monster also as the speed of the car increases ...this car will bark the tires at over 70mph just changing gears ....it seems hooch runs like this as there seems to be no bad spot anywhere except idle ......it surges there some .... i personaly think if one gets the charge right ...icing is no issue at all ... this car ran great on sub zero days humid days and whatever days always ... i am hoping hooch does too and will make no heating device unless i have to :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
