  • CAI idea, not just for the 3800 cars

    OK, here's an update for my new engine setup. It's the airbox off a mid/late 90's mustang w/K&N filter from e-bay, $21 shipped, 3" metal ducting & a hubless clamp to connect to the airbox, $13 from Lowes. The rubber boot connecting the ducting to the tb was cut from the original 2.8 boot from where it would connect to the stock air box.

    I will be mounting the airfilter box underneath the radiator cover sheild thing (where the hood latch catches) w/the opening facing down. Not much chance of any splashed water getting up there & good CAI for now (ram air planned for later). There's enough room between the back of the headlight bracing & the radiator to rout the ducting thru there. The power steering fluid resovoir has not been moved yet in the pic.

    The brakets underneath the cover will need to be moved, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
