Need the aero guys on here help???

As some of you know I'm building a 71 Camaro dual purpose car for Racing and FE. My question is where is the best place to pick up air for the engine? I'm thinking the cowl area before the windshield, or an air vent at the front on the lower valance.

In race mode it will be flowing around 160 lbs./min worth of air and FE mode around 3 lbs./min. In both modes it will have a grill plug. Race mode there won't be much time for the engine to get hot. In FE mode the engine runs very cool due to lean burn.

Thanks in advance!!!
