Anybody running one of these?

I recently upgraded to a Holley four-barrel carb and with exposed filter beather assembly my stock 350 is pretty loud. It wouldnt' be so bad except now, I'm having a hard time hearing the radio over the engine. (My doctor told me recently I should have listened when my mother told me to turn down the music), so I'm looking for something that will be a little quieter, but still look cool. Since its more of a closed design, I'm wondering if this guy would do the trick?

Your thoughts?

I like it. It's a retro style copy from a late 50's Cadillac/Olds or one of those.

Gotta be a lot quieter than an open element, and it looks very cool. I'd do it for sure.

Search the forum for "batwing" and you'll find some threads with pictures. I don't know if there's any discussion about sound or noise level.
