i am planning on getting a k&n filter for my lt1 install, but i am unsure of the demensions. i know i need a 3 1/2 inch opening for the maf, but i don't know about the rest. also i'd like to move the filter away from the maf and get a better location where colder air can be sucked in. any suggestions? thanks

 

I dont remember the part number, but I got a universal K&N canister filter and mounted it right in front of the washer fluid tank. Its got a 3.5" opening, I think its 6" diameter, and about 9" long. I'll run out tomorrow and see what the part number is and try and get a photo of it too.

 

yes i see it on your homepage there. what did you use as an extension from the maf to the filter.

 

actually that was the old $5 paper element filter I got at NAPA just after we got it running. At that time we used the old a/c evaporator canister with the ends cutoff as the extension. Now I'm actually using a piece of PVC pipe painted black. You can't even tell by looking at it what it is now. I'll get a new photo today.

 

thanks man i'd very much appreciate it. also man i'm thinking of putting together a swap guide, so if you have any pics or information you are willing to share (before/during/after) the swap, that you wouldn't mind being on a page... let me know. of course all aknowledgement of your work or any others would be given.

 

ok so I didnt have a chance yesterday, I'll try again today. Yeah a swap guide would be great. I guess this weekend I'll sit down and put together the process I went through and take some photos of different mounts and stuff and we'll compare them once you get it written.

 

yo man if you can get those demensions that would help out alot

 

Well, my camera crapped out on me when I tried to take some photos, and it got dark before I looked at the part number. I'm leaving for spring break this afternoon so I'll get it to you tomorrow.
