air induction
I snapped this picture in the OSS pits this past weekend. It is the the rather elaborate air induction system on OSS Vee Light
(single engine vee, 29') Wild Ride.
This class is spec limited to either a GM 496HP3/525 or a Merc
HP525. Looks like they are optimizing every other facet of their setup, including induction, since motor mods are not allowed.
And, speaking of induction
, the Bud Select Team Rocks 
!

Steve
PS I also posted my Destin OSS pics under the MCPA/Destin Pics thread.

Rage,
It has NACA ducts on both sides, hence the flex hose. Most of the SVL boats run some sort of Harwood type singe scoop.

Re: air induction
Could you see/describe what the engine throttle body intake looks like where it mates with the air box out let that is shown in your photo?
