Very cool. Can you post pics of the connections on the inside of the engine compartment?

As soon as I get that done, I sure will! Waiting on the air filter housing to come from Amazon. Should be here tomorrow

A little heat from a heat gun and you could make it fit perfectly. But looking nice so far

No, I want it to actually be functional!

Man, that's what I've been thinking about doing. I don't have any experience with shaping plastic like that, would it work pretty well?

Would be simple. A heat gun on low for a few minutes and you should be able to shape it any way you want.

Wasn't sure if the plastic would collapse or something. Never messed with it before

Just take your time and don't get it too hot. I've used a heat gun on some PVC projects.

I'm gonna stop by harbor freight today and pick up a cheap one. For $15, might as well. I can use it for heat shrink also

Air filter and housing came today.


It's a little on the small side, but there's not much room under the hood of our trucks, and I'm still wanting to squeeze another battery under there, so it'll have to do.
