Peter, funny you should mention this. I was thinking along the lines of the flap/door that opened under vacuum on the 1970 Chevelle 454 with cowl induction. The 1970 Trans Am also used a flap that opened with vacuum.

I was trying to picture our wiper cowl with a flap that opened under vacuum. This would keep water out and only open upon strong acceleration.
