hanging.

install the chrome tip and chrome tailpipe

heat shield on the tailpipe as shown in Figure

2

. tip may be slid in or out on the tailpipe to match

the body width.
NOTE: If possible, leave tailpipe within 2” of end

of chrome tip inside the tip. This will protect the

chrome from changing color from high exhaust heat.

Shorten tailpipe if required.

remove plastic air intake silencer from air

inlet hoses between air filter assembly and

engine.

using a hacksaw, cut the tapered sections off

the silencer as shown in Figure

. reinstall

the silencer in the air intake hoses using the original

the banks stinger cold air induction components

are designed to extend the factory air intake path

so that cooler outside air can be picked up from

directly behind the vehicle’s grille. these components

include a molded Banks super-scoop™, 4” diameter

flexible tubing, Ram-air filter cover and installation

hardware. Figure

shows a typical hook-up of

the air intake components as they tie to the factory

system. the super-scoop also serves as a water

separator to drain out any rain water that may enter

through the grille.
the banks stinger cold air induction package

is intended to fit a number of motorhome body

configurations. because each coach builder has a

different layout of behind-the-grille components,

there can be no one set installation procedure for the

banks ram-air package. the following instructions

are intended as a guideline for installing the ram-

air system. also, some coach builders may have

installed difficult to relocate components (such as

air conditioning freon piping or heater hoses) in the

areas where the banks ram-air is normally mounted.

In these cases, the installer will have to find an

alternate location for the Ram-air components, or

omit these pieces that are impossible to mount.

remove the air cleaner housing cover. replace

the factory paper element and filter cover

with the banks ram-air filter element and cover. use

new 6mm x 40mm bolts, don’t overtighten.

determine a location for the banks super-

scoop. it should be placed as low as possible

directly behind the grille, with the air inlet opening

pointing straight ahead. If the grille is at an angle,

the super-scoop should be trimmed at an angle,

whenever possible, to place the air inlet opening
