Is there any known history to the cowl intake hole the pics show being patched up?.

Per Jim Wangers, Pete, sometime after his ownership the firewall was modified for cowl induction. I've read this was done by Milt Schornack. I've seen photos of three holes cut into the firewall. When I got the car, they'd been transformed into the opening pictured.

Jim mentioned he only allowed the C&D team a few passes on slicks, fearing a blown diff. Something he later confirmed for himself on Woodward, electing to return to street meats.

Did Bill Sherman have a similar experience ...?
