Default Something a little different than FAST or LS6!!

I've been through several different intake manifold setups from LS6 to Vic Jr with a sheetmetal elbow....but now I've found something a little different. Currently, I have cut a little section out of the cowl (The metal under the plastic, to maintain the "stock appearance)...I will post pictures of the new filter setup I will do ...to prevent any sort of **** from getting into the throttle body.

I am running speed density....and I actually drew up a nice clean bracket on pro-e to squish a flat "cut to fit" K&N filter on top of that 4bbl.......

-I actually went through several throttle bodies on the elbow...and by far the (shown in picture) Janzter performance had the nices one.....the 4bbl is an accufab....the lowest profile of all the 4bbl....I wanted to keep the cowl as factory as possible..
