Air intake

BlakeusMaximus · Oct 20, 2018

So I think I’m going to go back to my stock air intake. I don’t like seeing a big ole chrome BBK intake anymore. I think my stock intake will look better anyways. I’ve heard/read that they really don’t do anything to help performance anyways. The outer part of my stock box has a hole in it. Do any of you guys have just the box that you would be willing to part with?

Why yes, yes I do.

How much thief?

I don't know, if some of these cars are worth what people are asking then the parts for them should rise too.

Let's see what it looks like now. You could paint it a dull black.

This is a pic of it from my old rusted out 90 notch. I don’t have a pic of it in my currrent car. It’s all boxed up and on sell on Craig’s. They sell black ones, I might have been ok with that.

So I haven’t had a stock box on any of my mustangs since 1999. Do the stock boxes flow just as good as the aftermarket ones? I ordered a K&N filter for it. Thanks again karthief!

General karthief · Nov 5, 2018

Yes they do in my opinion, they are sealed so they get no hot air from under the hood.

That's what I'm putting on mine, (I was fortunate it was in the trunk when I bought the car), the car had one of those chrome tubes BBK I think, at least the filter was in the wheel well and not in the engine compartment sucking hot air (never understood why people use those.

but seems to me with the K&n in the stock box it should flow just as much to me... I'm going to use a 70mm MAF from a 94-95 stang... and hook it to a 65mm Acufab TB.

I fit the stock box in last night and I think it looks way better too. I just got tired of looking at it for almost 20 years

Wish I could find a stock airbox and tube for my s/d 88. Prices are crazy.

I bid one one on eBay for 24 hours and the freaking thing went up to $100! Karthief came to the rescue. I had the original box but it had seen better days.

DSB88GT · Nov 6, 2018

Yeah...i've seen some crazy prices for them no doubt.

Let me look, I think I still have mine. It's been stored away for 25 years.

Sent you PM (here, they call it a Conversation).

I've never ran one of those. I never for the life of me saw the point in putting a steel pipe in the place of what I had and thinking it was going to do anything. I've also never called it and "intake". lol
