Cold Air Intake ?

Post by doyoulikeithere »

I see there are thousands of Cold Air Intakes availlable on the net for the newer vans,
but I havent seen much that looks like it will fit the Gen 1 TBI vans.
have you used the Cold Air Intake on a newer van? How are they?

Who has them for say, an 87 TBI van?

I dont really want to go with a 10 or 14 inch chrome open element.

I remember some of the mid 80's V6 Cadillacs had a cold air intake hat that fits.
If you can find one, you could use some ABS pipe and elbows, a K&N cone filtre, and make your own.
I haven't done this but I have seen it done.

Right But he been lookin hard for a cold air set up.That one would do it just extend it through core support Through the plastic dividers next to radiator.High pressure area straight shot to TBI a little extra length on one pipe to get it there..
