    The RH side pod on my '84 QV coupe has 3 outlets, the large one at the top goes through to the air filter box, below that is a smaller 45mm dia outlet and below that a 60mm dia outlet. Neither of these lower pair have anything connected to them at the moment and I can't see any mounting clamps for the ducting. From searching the forum it seems that they should have duct pipes attached - which I have sourced for around £15 from Temu (surprisingly good quality corrugated aluminium, painted black on the outside).

    I'm struggling to establish what goes where. I've seen a post which shows the 45mm pipe goes pretty much horizontally across the firewall and feeds cool air to the area around the alternator / front exhaust bank, but I cannot figure out where the 60mm outlet goes - or is the other way round?. From what I've seen it might feed cool air to the rear exhaust bank / fuel injection unit, but I cannot figure out the routing of the duct - well at least not without creating a U bend that would fill up with water!

    Can anyone help?

    Cheers

    Alden,
    Thanks for your help so far, I think you're right in that one of the ports goes towards the alternator (probably the 60mm one), and I think the smaller one feeds cool air towards the fuel distributor. I can't see how it would connect to the blow by system - there is a braided hose on the bottom of the air box, but this looks to be an outlet for the crankcase breather hose.

    I'm working on the car today, so will route the ducts as best as I can and see how I get on. The image below - nicked from Maranello Parts shows the three ports
