As I mentioned earlier I replaced the original one in, one out air box, (at that time fitted with the resonator) for the two in one out off the 160 trophy & with the resonator removed. I feed one pipe to the near side air intake & the second, extended, low down along the rear & out of the way of any vortices created by the exhaust.
Flash floods were infrequent then; when the news described a once in a hundred year flood, the last one really was a hundred years ago & we didn’t know then that the next was careening along in a month. These days you can set off in good conditions & be caught out, usually just north of Hilton Park services & going north. Boy did it rain, it ruined a really good straw hat in the space of time it took to pull the hood up!
Anyway, my strategy under flood conditions is simply to disconnect the pipe from the throttle body, then you have to think about how good your door seals are.
