I am getting a 90MM TB for my engine, and was wondering if the BBK fenderwell mount CAI was large enough for the TB?

Also, what size MAS should I go with, and what brand makes one 90MM+?

FWIIW this is going on a 357/spyder/AFR225 or CHI head/solid roller cam engine.

wow, seems like ur going with an awfully large setup here.

Either way, if the CAI ISNT big enough for the tb they make couplers with different sized ends to make it fit.

However, if you go will an equally sized maf that might cause problems because going from large to small with airflow can mess it up...

If all else fails, fabricate ur own.

My opinion the 90mm way to big, 75mm will support any amount of power you wish to make. ulness we are talk all out race 1000hp.

Click to expand...

I was in the same though mode there... hence why I said it sounded like awfully large combo....

a 75mm TB is more than large enough to support block cracking power.

75MM is good enough for 600HP, and next year for 800-900HP?
