Thumbs up Post Up Pics of Your Lid!

I never figured I'd be back to asking this question again, but I broke my DirectFlo Lid last night while putting in the Spec 3 clutch, so I guess I'm in the market for a new one!

Post up pics of your lids and comment on fitment. Thanks!

TSP sanded completely smooth

Fitment is okay. I've never seen one that I think fits great.

Thats the one I broke.

From what I understand, LS1 Motorsports called their lid the "DirectFlo" unit.

Here's a hint: Don't just unclamp your air lid when you're doing a clutch job - take it all the way off.

This is my Granatelli lid. Fits nicely, I had to use a K&N filter though because it wouldn't fit with the stock filter.

Dude........I really like you airlid. That green filter looks sweet too. Not to mention you can keep an eye on the filter better to see when and if you need to clean it.

I had a question though, has anybody had problems with clearance? It;s a whispher lid but if you look on top there's a dip in it from it touching the hood, which is an after market hood
