LJWalter Posted January 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Did you decide on how you are gonna run the ram air ducts yet?I think so. I will mold some pvc to go from the inside of the port to the air box. Then use something similar to the radiator cover for the outside of the air holes.

LJWalter Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Finished up the ram-air covers today. Another trip to staples. This time I found a kit on clearance, plenty of metal to play with. Also a 2" pvc cap from lowes.The frame holes:2 coats of paint and done!

mello dude Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 ^^^ That's pretty damn clever... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 That should get enough air. Might think about some air ducts to route air in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJWalter Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 That should get enough air. Might think about some air ducts to route air in.Yea, thats next on the list. Thankfully there is a small lip on the inside of the frame hole. Big enough for a clamp. I think i can make a 3" to 2" flex pipe work. Hell, with enough JB weld, duct tape & west virgina engineering, anything is possible! hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolsdime92 Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I had a clear LED tail light for a sprint st( which is the same tail light as yours), and i just dug around in the garage and apparently its gone. I was going to donate it to the cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
