ABSTRACT:
An elongate, shallow, rectangular duct is formed in a vehicle hood by structure depending from an inner surface thereof, the hood inner surface forming a top surface of the duct. The rectangular duct includes a forward ambient air inlet and a rear air outlet and incorporates a series of baffles strategically located between the two for eliminating moisture from air flowing therebetween. A sealing sleeve disposed in the duct outlet to engage the engine air cleaner is provided within the duct with an internal passage having a bellmouth nozzle entrance section to the outlet and an external surface having a third baffle section thereon within the duct. The portion of the sleeve external of the duct includes a bellows section to accommodate variations in the position of the air cleaner inlet.
