Ok been messing around with making an air cleaner pan and the snout still want to put a piece for attaching the heat riser hose that will go down to the headers. Not sure if I should leave the flange on it or cut it off what do you think. The other engine I made an after market style air pan. Just kind of playing around with this. I had to make some RC car parts for my nephew and after I finished them I started playing. Any way I king of think the flange looks out of place. Next I'll play around with making an oil filter add on for the engines.

Yes, I just powder coated it and thinned out the flange. I'll post again when it cools down. I was thinking about the heat riser tube or hose also. It's raining mixed with snow so no outside work so just playing around in the shop.
 
Ok cooled down I'll play around on making a wing nut tomorrow morning.
