Does this change the filler neck from 2 to 1 piece? also will this move the cap towards the passenger side more so its not resting on the greddy elbow? if so ill order one right now!

It's still 2 pieces, we just change the top piece.

If you would like yours angled a bit more towards the passenger side, we can do that for you. just put that in the notes section when purchasing it, but you have to be specific on the angle, so tell us if you would like it for example "turned 5 degrees more toward passenger side from stock position".

They're for vacuum normally, the bung is more for preventing oil going into the intake path while the vacuum is pulling air in the engine, and that line would just be run to a catch can.

Not ceramic, just chrome looking that's all.

Just a reminder that this is already open and you can just follow the links sent earlier on to go through with purchasing one.

Just curious if you guys have any pictures of it installed? Such as at and angle like in this picture? It would make a great comparison picture for your website

Wish I did, don't have a 3rd gen on hand to do it on currently though. Perhaps some of the buyers from this group buy would be able to provide one for us?

Still waiting on the tubing on it, which should be here early next week, I have 40 bends coming. From there I just need to cut and weld, all the flanges are already done.

We can update that, easiest thing is buy it from your account as is now, but in the notes section tell us your new mailing address, and we will update it then.

I want to get version 1 non-powdercoated. The problem is I have the Xcessive fd lower intake manifold from pineapple racing so the neck would have to be extended on the midsection from back to front so it can clear the upper intake manifold. since the xcessive lower manifold pushes everything forward a little bit.
pm me please..

We had to do some modifications to the jig due to a couple of issues that came up. I would rather send them out fitting right then have them all sent back to be fixed. Sorry for this delay, all of them (minus the last 2 guys that ordered them a couple of days ago), will be going out tomorrow with tracking numbers associated with all of them.

here you go:



Please note that mine was extended for about 2/3" outward towards the front of the engine. I am using GZ LIM with stock UIM and Greddy elbow. I have no clue why i needed the extension but this neck was actually made for the use of GZ LIM. It was hitting my throttle little just a tad bit.

Re-Speed was very accommodating and fixed this problem for me with no charge.

Highly recommended.

Yes you are. Yours did just get done today (minus the powder coating), we're going to try to ship that out tonight if not then tomorrow morning.

I don't think that I've updated any of the oil filler neck shipping yet for anyone. But most of them already have been shipped out. We only have one left to do and that too should be done today. That one is for a guy in North Carolina with a greddy elbow.

We sold more than anticipated and ran out of flanges for a few order hence why a couple were behind the others.
