Horrible diagram I know but just grab these dimensions real quick didn't have much time to get a better one, hopefully this helps.

Red is xx inch

Dark Blue is xx inch

Teal is xx inch

Green is xx inch

Orange is xx inch

Very very rough diagram, just to get an understanding of the size of this thing. Let me know what exactly you need.

The bay is so differnt that wont help. Angles & mounting points are diff.

Putting out crab dimensions will not help anyone except pirates. :dancingpontiac:

I already got the dimensions. It could work. Mounting it would be a bit of an issue however. I'm iffy on buying it though, mainly because I still have a true CAI waiting to go on.

Hmmmm, make a prototype out of cardboard first, cheapest route...

That's true. I'll steal some of the hundreds of boxes from work when I get the chance. :lol2:

I believe you are right sir. :blink:

This is what I would do: I would take a piece of cardboard cut out the ruff shape of the L with the hole for the intake to pass thru. Cut it and refine the shape ect and then trace the final design to some thin metal (aluminum probably). Something bendable to the L shape cut out your final design and walla you got your heat shield. :) A little sanding, some paint and and some sort of rubber gasket so it seals to your hood when its closed. All that would/should be pretty easy to do and you got one nice custom heat shield. :blink:

what you think of that?

The guy who sold me the intake, never supplied me with the needed clamps or grommets. Too cold to go mess with that now.
