-11- ADJUSTABLE AIR INTAKE ASSEMBLY AND METHOD Abstract An air intake assembly for a vehicle com- prises a first housing rotatably mounted on the vehi- cle and a stationary second housing mounted within the first housing. A plurality of first inlets are formed through the first housing and are adapted to align with a plurality of second inlets formed through the second housing to normally permit the passage of air there- through for engine combustion purposes. Upon further relative rotation of the housings, the inlets become misaligned to prevent the passage of air therethrough. In another aspect, inlets are formed through both side and bottom walls of the housings and disposed thereon whereby upon alignment of the inlets formed through the side walls of the housing to permit the passage of air therethrough the inlets formed through the bottom walls of the housings will be closed and vice versa.
