I have the FIPK clone and no s- bolt is necessary. I used the E-1080
K&N filter and ERSON E981102 air cleaner. The ERSON comes with a new
carriage bolt, wing nut and PCV hook up. My girlfriend installed it for
me. I don't mean to be sexist or single out any members but if you can't
install this setup yourself then you're mechanically incompetant and
shouldn't be modifying your truck.
