Spotted this on the El Camino forum and thought others might be interested in the findings of their test results, too.

Any time you can raise the air cleaner lid off the top of the carb will make more power. The drop base is the standard because most stock hoods can't fit much more with a taller intake. But if you can fit it, a flat base an tall filter is best. I had a 69 z/28 scoop on my nova and used a 4" element.
