1995 k1500 Cold Air Woes - has anybody with a Cold Air Intake done this?

Hey Mille Racer 69,
How are you doing today?
I'm going to go with the new hood with a scoop. Not only will you solve the problem, you'll give your truck a snappy, new, modified look.

I think you're right. Alone, I like the look of the hood scoop, plus it will give me the cold air I want.
So sounds like a winner to me!

here is the prototype and fitting stage of my setup, you all should be able to turn your snorkles to the left and get some where close to this. after I get it all figured out I will dissassemble it all, and take pictures and explan it all. but for now here is a teaser. and ys I have the restricted air flow behind the head light figured out,, patience grasshoper, patience!

hey guys, I am just about finished with the Tuned Port conversion and got to looking and thinking. I am really stupid here so bear with me. I could have moved the battery to the drivers side, and then had the whole RH side fender to build my CIA, DOH!!!! well it is done now, I need someone to tell me how to post pictures on this blog so that I can post the CIA conversion. LH conversion would be very simular to what I have done. P.S. you better decide if you want looks or function. my system is running arround 120 deg at cruse, due priamarly to bare alum CIA tubes. the heat transfer is increadible, I would never have guessed it? I will be insulatin mine soon and will post the results
