How many times have you guys heard me say the thing I couldn't live without is my lift.
Once you own one - you'll never work on a car without one! Good for you!! Nice shop addition!

Thanks Greg. I have built quite a few vehicles, including my race cars, off of a creeper. I drove down into Atlanta to pick it up in my truck, (to save money on shipping...because I'm cheap...no I'm thrifty) and while in their showroom, I was probably the most excited I've ever been, while making a purchase. Should have my car on it this week, to try it out.

Well...as a matter of fact, I was going to update this thread today. Nope, not on the street yet, but really close. I've been saying that for a while now...

Bought some pieces of tubing from a company called Intakehoses.com
Very reasonably priced, actual carbon fiber stuff. I already had my filter, as it came with my Mast Motorsports ECM. They have the rubber connections, and clamps also, in many different sizes. I have some tube and stuff left over if anyone is interested...here's some pics

I ran the tube into the fender, so the filter element stays out of the hot engine bay air, and built a close-out panel to help seal it off. I had to leave an opening in front of this panel, to access my headlights, for practicality.
I cut a 4" hole in the bottom of the inner fender, below the filter, to help pull in some cooler air, and made a diverter shield (scoop) to put over the bottom of it, on the bottom side, facing the bumper, to keep any splash water, or debris from the tire, out of the hole I made...
