>
> My K&N cone finally came in friday and construction of my custom intake
> began. So far, I've fabbed up 1/2 of the heat shield out of sheet metal and
> I've removed the rubber flap from the passenger side of the radiator. I
> extended my heat shield to direct air from that opening right onto the
> filter (I put a screen overtop of the opening though to avert any
> unsuspecting bugs from being sucked into the K&N). I also cut a hole in my
> engine bay directly below where the filter will sit (and let me tell you GOD
> BLESS Dremel Tools! ... especially the flexible wands!). All that's left to
> do now is fab up the rear half of the heat shield, mount the small air line
> to the new intake and then port out the throttle body.
>
> This weekend, I also bought some spark plugs and here's where the good deal
> comes in. I grabbed 4 packs of two and brought them to the till, and the
> dumb ass only rang one pack through! woohoo, I got a set of plugs for $3.29
> CDN! heh heh...
>
> Up next on my list is the exhaust (I have my flowmaster on order),
> thermostat, and HO cams (Also on order). Then I'm going to throw her on the
> Dyno again and see what a difference it made.
