Thanks Stainless. I don't know why he does that. It was a constructive post that definitely contributed to the discussion, but without your help few would have had a chance to see it.

See, I thought you'd put that there because it looks like the front of a certain Bokscar

In response to the question about intake duct location, there is a stagnation point in the very front of the nose where an intake duct will be effective and not adversely affect aerodynamics.  A few very fast vehicles have ducts in this location.

thank you so far
here is a cad of our direction at this time (roughed in not smoothed yet)
as you can see not the same as another but uses some ques from a few of them
and please know this is strictly a rough in and we are still smoothing things and the back end hasnt even been touched yet
and the angle it was snapped at makes it look a little weird

That is interesting, I think the intake hole needs to be installed lower by about 1/3 the dia. of the hole.

Hmm...
If that's going to be an official moderator function (to reverse my discretion on my own comment), I'll have to be even more reticent about saying anything.
That is what you want, isn't it?

Your actions speak louder than words, let's keep this thread on topic.
