The air filter set-ups will switch over and work. The only difference is that the v6 upper air filter piece has a threaded hole in it where the IAT sensor goes, but it will still work.

Is there something you're wanting to do that's different? If so, take a look at the TPI Airlid thread that's been resurected & working it's way around the past couple weeks. It's basically the Master's course in Air Box information. Nitro-Nicky
