Same principle as Nascar, only better. I find the underfloor master cylinder to be a pain. So the drivers side vent box comes off the firewall to make way for a later dual pot Olds unit with swinging pedal. The vent screen at the base of the windshield now sweeps all that strong cool ventilation to the carbs. The Mr. Gasket birdcatcher (flea market bargain) is just a fancy air box. Thinking of fabbing a one off box later, this will do for now. The collars on the flex hose easily push off the elbows for car wash and rain storms. The rest of the assembly is held by 2 wing nuts underneath and zips off quickly when needed. All materials used was shop scrap. Will volunteer other pics if interested........... Nothing special needed by snips and tag board patterns.

Yes, please, can you take it apart & show each piece as you put it back together?
Don't worry if that's too much of a hassle. Not real familiar with all the terms & step by step photo documentation would help a lot.
Thanks,
Chaz
