  • Putting k&n lt1 intake on 96 3.8?

    I was looking for something other than the slp intake and was wondering if i could get the k&n cai for the lt1 and 3.4 and put it on my 3.8 by just getting the rubber elbow from slp. Would this work or would there be fitment issues?

    The elbow will probably rub against the radiator because the friggin TB sits too close to it, but it'll work.
    I just finished making a custom intake again and I used a 90* piece of PVC pipe on the TB. I had to custom cut it and melt/bend/form the one PVC pipe that passes in front of the anti-lock unit, but all-in-all, it works great!
