Butchering the intake - part deux

aka - Gasp... NO! You'll ruune yer engine!!

aka - Recycling is american.

Here is part one entitled "I was only going to change out the air cleaner mounts..."

I was only gonna change the air cleaner mounts...

it contains answers to important questions such as...

"Whats wrong w/ the stock intake?"

and many more!

Kindly peruse it if you are planning to post on this thread so we don't cover old ground.


So I am building an airbox behind the RF headlight and I am using some of the old stock parts to 'feed the airbox' The collector and the old turbo 'u-tube' will be incorporated into the airbox, after some modification.

I am still mocking up the intake, this one is only temporary, I am going to have some 304 Stainless mandrel bent,then TIG in some bungs, then I will install the largest filter that will fit, then some insulation or heat shields.

I have been working w/ cardboard templates to make the airbox, its going well except for the stupid (non-funct) A/C hose, which is in the way of everything.




I've got about 700 'test' miles on the setup as you see it, and its functioning fine.
