"Proper air box"
What about if you were to fabricate a plenum from mild steel sheet (basically a 500x200x100 box), fit it to the carburettor flange, then...
- Fit the Ramflo filters inside the airbox with a 3" port for induction (perhaps ducted with flex tube to cold air)?
- Or no filters in the box but a pod filter on the plenum port?
- Or an airbox with panel filter in the front of the engine bay connected to plenum with 3" flex tube?
Specifically what pollution controls are required which affect the filters/airbox? The Ramflo kit includes a 1/2" fitting in the air filter backing plate for crankcase ventilation, etc.

Wouldn't K&N pods create the same problems as Ramflo ones? Or am I missing some point of difference between the two?
