Reply to "Finally found a decent air cleaner that clears the decklid with tall carb"

I did this conversion years ago and it was one of those projects that got more complicated once it was started

I had to order, calibrate and install a flexible SS dipstick tube from Lokar. I had to relocate my coolant tanks which required changes to the coolant piping.

The Plenum with the two outlets just …..barely…. fit under the screen using the Edelbrock performer. With the new stroker that uses CHI aluminum heads and the blue thunder Pantera-specific intake, I had to mill the plenum’s carburetor flange to bare minimum and even with that I wound up raising the screen just under 1/4 inch by modifying the two side mounting points.

I had to shorten both elbows a little bit to allow the air filters to clear the luggage tub

not a job for the faint hearted but I have always been very pleased with the final result
