Jeez, you must have been really pulling your hair out if it took 11 stitches to put it back in....

Hahahahahahha yeah they found a brain in there some where
Little something I've been working on. Have to have an enclosed filter so I bought an Apollo K&N filter but the flange was about a 55mm hole. Talk about restrictive. I wanted to use same diameter pipe from the bommodore so made a mod plate with half a MAF sensor to accept the same pipe.

Mine keeps it legal Pete! I'll put it through the guard for cold air and leave it rather than sucking hot air from the bay

Hey mate,

What's the idea with coming through the side of the pillar? Is it so the integrity of the pillar where the seat belt is mounted, isn't compromised?

Cheers

Thanks mate.
In the middle of getting paint to respray it and have found that PPG in acrylic is barely sold anymore....😱
Boys at seatbelt solutions can't find a lion in a square and the trapezoid shape one will leave a gap. So I have to go with GM Press. Using black webbing (no inertia belts) it has come up pretty smick.
Bottom mounting point is on the floor and not the pillar for interest sake

I used a similar idea on my Vauxhall with the v6 because I found the K&N filter too noisy so I used that alloy piece to retain the hose to the inner guard and then took half the original filter box and filter and bolted it to the other side of the inner guard . It works well because now the engine bay is quiet and intake is cooler .Just have to use a washable filter . Haydn
