Bump for any helpful person who can provide constructive information like X and CaliGuy did.

Grizam303 · 05-12-2008, 11:57 AM

Bump because it's Monday.

what kind of info are you looking for. you dont need to follow his stand design. as long as you bent the metal to be bolted to the motor and attach it to the airtube, it will work. so special hidden secrets.
go het some flat 1/2 aluminum stock ,a hammer, vice, and a drill.
start bending it to fit and drill holes to mount to the intake.

This answers my question. Thanks a lot!

I'm picking up my pieces from the dealership on Wednesday, so I want to be 100% ready to go by then. The mount was the only thing that looked iffy, with people trying to charge $20 for what looked like a simple piece of bent metal. I thought there had to be some kind of secret with it.

I'm really looking forward to this mod (fabricating and

ing)!

Only mod on the engine is my homemade x intake.

^dyno means nothing unless you have a baseline from before the install

I guess making sure to have safe a/f ratios means nothing
