Hey guys, i just got back from the junkyard, and i was like OH ****, im gonna make me a ghetto intake! turns out i found parts and its not so ghetto...
im not finished and im going to be running a cone filter off the intake pipe, but im not sure if i want to mount the filter in front yet... time will tell

here are the pics
props goes out to dankus rotary

 

oh FYI, the "carb hat" came off an early 90's taurus and the pipe came off a mid 90's escort with the sefi engine or whatever..

dankus ur the man, im gonna try and find more junkyard ideas, maybey u can start a website with junkyard first gen performance mods

 

ya dude that hat looks tyte!!! get a hole drilled int he top, screw her down, tell me how it fits!!!!!

 

DANKUS SALVAGE YARD RACING! wait is that the discovery channel calling? hold on a sec , hello? yes this is dankus ? whatt ? all hondas are salvage yard built? thanks , um , bye ! seriously im doing my enging compartment up and i found some neat relay boxes and a maxi fuse strip to replace the week *** fuse links , when its done ill get more pics up

 

yo dankus, this is just a crazy thought, but do you think a little k&n oil breather filter on the hole on the side of the "carb hat" would do anything? or should i just plug it off,
just a random idea
never hurts to ask

plug it.

 

you know now that you mention it thats a good idea, ive experienced carb venturi freeze up a couple of times , it happens if temps below 37 or so but still above freezing, 100 percent humidity was the culprit, fortunately letting it set for just a couple minutes let engine heat build back through carb and shes good to go, maybe that little filter would allow a little engine heat back into air stream , I even got wone on the intake pipe to airpump , which i cut the belt to, i used a red urethanne bushing to plug mine

 

how did you connect the carb hat to the carb?
a long bolt?
-greg

 

u aint gonna like this but i had a used carb offn my spARE eng , i chopped the bolt down on it and hose clamped it to the old one so i could reinstall old cleaner in a pinch, gonna do some thing differrent soon cause i can hear i now from the peanut gallery , maan what if one of them there clamps gets down in motah?
