I'm using the stock air cleaner to draw up air from around the exhaust / header pipe number one. This is a working prototype made from a 45 degree exhaust connector, a piece of 1" structural angle steel, and a section of flexible exhaust to take up the slack between the O.D. of the air cleaner, and the I.D. of the bent pipe.
The thermostatic control on the '75 air cleaner assembly above is probably wasted. So, it will get a manual control, just like the '74 air cleaner had. Right now, it is a choke cable stop, and a piece of stiffer than bailing wire to adjust the original flapper.
So far, it seemed to help, but it is kinda early to tell. I'm watching to make sure that I don't cook my air filter or whatever, but, I really think that this might help with winter wheeling.
Thoughts?
