LG4 Stove pipe
I just upgraded my intake from the single to the dual snorkel but do not have the time yet to reroute the stovepipe from the exhaust manifold to the driver side thermac. Can I run with this open or should I try to close it off?

Re: LG4 Stove pipe
It should be fine without being connected. The car could possibly stumble a bit before it fully warms up, but once it does it shouldn't make a difference.

all it does is pull warm air from off the exhaust manifold and let it go into the engine

You dont need it. I had an L69 air cleaner and ran without it for about 8 months. Never caused a problem, only took another minute or so to warm up.
