What year is this intake ducting/air cleaner from? I want stock ducting, but not the stock 86 super restrictive ducting with the funky box and all in there

oopps I guess you need a pic

 

88-89 (maybe higher as well) Pontiacs.

 

Just those 2 years. In 90 there's no provision for the MAF.

 

I could use that to replace my 86 set up without having to mod anything cant I?

 

you'll need the air cleaner cannister too, but as long as you've got it all it shouldn't be a problem.

If I were you I'd get some 3" pipe, bend it, fit the MAF on it, and stick a cone filter on the end down where the stock airbox is. If I ever mod my GTA I'm going to do that.

 

Image piracy!!!

I'm telling john!!!!

 

Hey when Im giving him $500-$600 he better not mind if I use his pic to ask a question

 

what can I use to bend 3" piping?

oh yeah ..and how would I form it to fit the throttle body.

 

That first picture is a SLP cold air induction. I have since ripped that off and sold it. It was kinking too much when I swapped to LT1 intake due to it sat so much farthar forward.

I have since fabbed a dual 3" air intake.

 

yeah you mentioned that in your e-mail to me, do you have any pics of that Im thinking im gonna fab something up too now

 

Well, it's going to require some custom fabbing. If you're not able to do that sort of stuff, it's probably a moot point. I imagine you could use some rubber couplers between the MAF and the pipe tho.

 

I wanna do it out of alluminum piping to shine it up real nice, I wonder if a muffler shop will bend for me. otherwise I'll get ABS piping from Home Depot and do it that way.

 

ABS or PVC will look like hell.

A muffler shop can bend it, but it'll bottle-neck it. Having some sort of undustrial supply/ machine shop type of place do it would probably be your best bet. I wouldn't be surprised if they even had some sort of contraption with a 90* bend already in it.

 

Maybe even call mufflex for a quote on a mandral bent piece?

Just an idea

 

I have the stock air box canister and an SLP intake tract elbow if youre interesed 86 fybrd.

 

Im interested in fabing one up out of Alluminum 3" pipe with mandrel bends just cause I wanna polish it and have it shine with nice straight pipes, I e-mailed ufflex for a price for 2 pipes, each with a 90 degree bend in them towards the end to try and do it the way I have in my head.

IF that doesnt work out, I'll let you know, how much would you want and do you have any pics of the stuff.

 

Here's what I did after the SLP CAI:

It's still a work in progress, I will eventually move the battery in the back.

 

Heres my plan. I want to get alluminum 3" pipe and polish it up to do this.

 

John yours looks like a good plan, did you make or buy that "Y" piece?

also what filters are they, would they fit on 3" pipe?

man the more i plan stuff the more I cant wait for the engine/intake to be done

 

I made the "dual" piece from two 3" long elbow PVC at the home center.

The filters are universal K&N's part number RU-2510. They are clamp on 3" filters.

 

How's 40+shipping for the cannister and the SLP elbow?

 

Price is good, I'll get back to you if I need it though.
