Heres what i have so far, have a few other thing unseen in the picture that in theory should help direct airflow, but i have not even started the demo of solidworks to see how it flows.

needs more plenum and runners don't need to be longer than 9-10" or so



there's a reason this didn't catch on:

Dude that looks Cool, how come they didn't catch on?

And i didnt mess with the plenum because im going to have to redo it for solidworks anyway. wait that looks like it hangs down near the alternator.

I remember when you had to do all the big boy stuff in Catia. Solidworks has come a long way. I should get a license from the ole lady and start playing with it again.....
