Default Photos of truck intake covers- Let's see them

I am going to have to make a cover as the factory cover will not clear the hood. I would just like to see some examples of homemade intake covers from those out there who used the truck intake.

Let's see what you com up with.

Thanks

It all about the money and using what I have. It's that simple.

Get a rasping bit and a Dremel tool and go to town.


By the time you spend the money and effort covering up a truck intake, you could probably just run an LS1 intake.

Yeah I would shave it before fabricating a cover. Shaving can be pretty difficult though. Just gotta take your time.
