get a griffin rad and stand it up / knotch the core support, that will give you 3-4 inches, you can then put an elbow with a filter on it.

Had to get creative Izzy. Just look around and you will come up with an idea I did so I am sure you can also I am no rocket scientist for sure. I believe I was closer than you with the Pro Charger also still using a stock LT1 radiator also. Tilted it back towards the front of the car and trimed the core support like Tiago was saying. GL.

Did your kit not come with an air filter? They (TTi) have a elbow and a length of pipe that the filter is attached to. Call TTi and they should be able to hook you up...

he bought a used kit, it also has a tangential T76 on it , instead of the standard on center that comes in those kits, custom...lol

the rubber elbows that come with those kits are just too flimsy and will collapse under big boost, I would fabricate one out of metal Izzy.

If your going to be making big power then yes the rubber elbow could collapse.

If your going to be running "big boost" I can sell you a silicone elbow but they aren't cheap.

Thanks Ryan
