Nice Bill! What's redneck about that??

I assume you're planing on using some kind of foam filter material in the "box"?

Was there a reason you didn't want to just stick a cone style filter on the end of the intake tube??

Bill, very nice addition might I add. One question though, I see on the induction boxes you have those mesh grills for air inlet. Are you going to leave them like that or are you going to cover them up with some type of cloth or breathable paper to keep bug particles and dirt from getting into your motor? Or did you just fab the boxes up to the exact specs of a squared air filter? Maaan, that truck is sick.

the filter boxes hold a filter from an 05 grand cherokee. i mainly put the grille on to tone down the filter visability a little. im also fabing up grilles from expanded alum. kind of like street scene grilles. thanks for checking in bill

It's really looking good Bill. Now that the Blizzards are hopefully over, I really want to get down and see this thing. Oh, and let me know if you need anything modeled. Happy to help a fellow Keystone Stater out.
