Default D1SC Filter Problem.

Im doing a front mount intercooler. Everything is going great but my old intake hat wont work. I turned the supercharger so it faces the driver side and the intake to the motor comes up the passager side. I dont have a AC and i put the battery inthe back and relocated the coolent tank. so i have a ton! of room. But i need a small filter to fit on the procharger.

I know there are a few people who have ran their intercooler this way. What did you do for a air filter? Pics please.

not sure how much room you have bet. the s/c and radiator-on my chevelle, i had about 4"(vette acess drive with vette style procharger) i orig used an f body intake tube(had to cut off a nipple), have since switched to an old procharger carb hat, welded on an adapter to fit the front of the s/c, and am piping the filter thru the fenderwell (not shown in this pic) one day im gonna fab up something that i can use as a 4" intake, right now its around 3.5"
