I have installed a modified version of Chucks cowls on
my angle-valve 360. It certainly looks nice without the
bottom bump. That said, I'm not sure I saw
much, if any, speed increase. Maybe a knot. I used
to have tons of bumps and bulges on my old cowl -- I
called it my Test Mule. I had 2 big air scoops
and the bottom bulge. I found that the two air scoops,
when removed, gave me a speed increase of 2 knots each.
When I removed the bottom bulge
(effectively relocating the air intake) I saw virtually
no difference in speed. But I do like the looks. The
other scoops resulted in speed increases probably
more because of the fact that the air intake was ELIMINATED
as opposed to just moving it.
Here's a picture of before and after.
