Message:
What did you use for piping? filter? I am going to make a cold air intake myself, just not sure which way to go. I have seen some really rigged setups with a bunch of eyesore PVC.
I want to make this look good. Any ideas before I start. What size inlet does my filter need to have? I assumed my air hat inlet is 3"...haven't checked it out yet.

If you have a 4.7L I personally think you are wasting your time but if you really want to try I do remember someone posting on here within the past 2 years that I think made the intake tube of tubular aluminum (or something besides PVC)he bought somewhere. Just do an exhaustive search on the homemade/homebrew intakes (may take a few hours) and maybe yo will find what I am talking about. Good luck

I detailed my aluminum alloy tubes-to stock airbox-intake info under the post "What is the best intake?". I've got 103K on my '01 4.7 RC now, and it has never run better. I use the stock snorkel inlet in the Winter, and a 4" or 6" "no-hub" Fernco inlet Spring/Summer/Fall. The last 6" inlet I altered had a 4"x2" slot facing the stock fender induction area. The most common concern is water/rain in the airbox, which is extremely extremely nil. I'll have to borrow my daughter's digital cam for some pics.

I went to Home Depot and got myself some 3" aluminum dryer duct and cut it to size. Works great. A nice big APC air filter fit right on the end with no problem. Am going to have the duct painted with some graphics or flames. Hardly cost me a thing.
