Hey guys,

What exactly is the purpose of this blower in the engine bay? My situation is I don't have hoses attached. I've been running my car without it hooked up.

I read that a couple of threads that you don't necessarily need it. You can cap off the hole on the driver side (mine is currently open). As it is right now, after I run her a little while, she smokes out of it a bit until she cools.

Thanks,
Jason

I believe it's for the heater/defroster. I live where its usually warn, so I removed the heater stuff to have more room for my twin carb set-up.
