I cant find a smaller Air intake,So I cant install my EG33 without cutting the Bulkhead,.I need about a 1.5" inboard and I then intend to use the Maddog -6 mount and bolt to the bulkhead,.Is this a reasonable path to take I've tried pounding in the bulkhead...its just not deep enoungh.

Thanks Chris H....I thought about doing that then fiber glassing the back, But, I always thought that the intake was built that way for the max air volume So I was afraid to cut into it incase the engine would not run correctly be cause it wasn't getting the correct amount of air flow at WOT,..if you guys think there's no problem with that then,.I'll wack the back off that intake..LOL

Basically what Clay was saying, you trim the throttle body and the snorkel tubes rather than the back. Wouldn't worry about max air flow too much, the Vanagon guys alter their intakes or use smaller ones pretty regularly. |
