Current Project Update: Cold air Intake.

I purchased the intake kit from Ebay seller chromeintakes. I ended up paying 15$ for  the intake and 15$ for shipping for a total of $30. The install was very simple and only took 15 min.  I did however run into two problems.

The first problem was getting the rubber 3.5'' round grommet over the LT1's throttle body. A little soap and heat got it to slide over no problem.

The other issues was the 3.5'' hose clap they provided for the throttle body was about a 1/4 inch to short and would not connect. I solved this buy getting another very short hose clamp and putting them together to make one bigger out of of two.
