Thread: Air filter choice

  1. #1

    Air filter choice

    I am wondering what you all are choosing to use for your air filtration on your swap. I have a special thing in mind but until I get to that am wanting a cone filter for the TB, It is a 4.8L, 2002 model. I also would like to know about the MAF Sensor need, where do you get yours? Do I even need one? THanks,

    If you have electric fans you can do what Virgil (mean05) did. Clamp the MAF straight onto the throttle body and then a cone filter onto that. Not much restriction there.

    I think so, my 4 inch cold air intake fits so I guess that makes the throttle body pretty close. Where are you from?

    That is pretty close. There are a couple other guys from Burleson and Alvarado on here. What do you drive?

    currently my DD is an 07 Hyundai, dont laugh!....OK, laugh.
    I am putting a 4.8/4l60e into my old friend, 65 Chevy SWB.

    But in a few weeks, when I finish my 65, I will DD it.
