lol.....not quite a sheet metal plenum but i guess that'll work.
I bet if it was on an import everyone would be calling - RICE
By the way does the carb need to be adjusted for such use? Similar to a draw-through carbed/turbo system?

Yup, many holes have to be filled to prevent pressurized air from escaping. Upgraded floats and probably a whole lot of other stuff I can't even think of. Would be easier to find a bigger muffler and put the whole carb inside it!
