These arent the greatest pics, but what I have is an air curtain that I made, and a K&N air filter on a 3" piece of metal pipe I welded to a piece of plate steel. I then bolted the pipe to the MAF. Works great. My digital camera is getting fixed, but when I get it back I can post some pics with the parts installed.

have you guys noticed differences when you did this?

I customized my k&N setup by adding a 73mm C&L mass air flow housing. I'll paint the pvc black eventually.

There is more throttle response and a much better sound. Acceleration is a little better and i've noticed a slight increase in MPG.

Ok don't give me crap for my **** being dirty. I just had a back surgery, and truck has been pretty much sitting. But I'll post a pic anyway.
My maf has a 3 bolt flange, as does the filter, so they have to be mounted together. All I need ( besides a good bath) is a nice box around filter and a hood seal.

Actually it is a Proffesional Products Typhoon
It is identical to Edelbrock, but polished is less money than Ed's satin performer

 

[Doubt Incarnate]

Try this

http://www.professional-products.com/

scroll down the page, it shows a shot of the lower, add to that a 1" trick flow spacer, an x-cam on 347 ci, and it is torquey
click the link in my sig for exhuast, that launch is only part throttle and only up to 5500 rpms

I got mine from here

http://www.motorville.com/

Did you notice any poor casting and ports bot lining up with your pro products manifold? I had the same thing for my 95 Cobra and that thing needed tons of work just to get the ports to align from upper to lower... cheap chinese knockoffs...

Mine didn't have a problem, but I bolted it to Edelbrock heads

I've got to get a pic of mine up one of these days. I'm using the filter box from a Volant for the SOHC (complete with a "5.0" badge where the Volant once used to be), intake tube from a ASMI setup (painted), C&L 73 mm MAF body (stock electronics), Green filter. Nice setup and one of a kind.

i think i'll steal your idea.

It's an expensive option. I already had the Volant setup from my '00 Sport. Ended up scoring the ASMI on eBay and paid full pop for the whole setup (only needed the tube). Also had the MAF body on the Sport. Just scored the filter recently from on online retailer ($69 US + shipping).

Post some pics, what sort of filter costs 69 USD?
