RAm-AIR INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

The banks Ram-Air cold air induction components

are designed to extend the factory air intake path

so the cooler outside air can be picked up from

directly behind the vehicle’s grille. These com-

ponents include a molded Ram-Air Super-Scoop

(Figure 2, #A), 4” diameter flexible tubing (Figure

2, #C), a molded bulkhead fitting (Figure 2, #d),

and installation hardware. Figure

shows a typi-

cal 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 system. The following instruc-

tions are intended as a guideline for installing

the system. also, some coach builders may have

installed difficult to relocate components (such as

air conditioning freon piping) in the areas where

the banks ram-air system is normally mounted. In

these cases, the installer will have to find an alter-

native location for the components, or omit those

pieces that are impossible o mount.

Remove the air filter cover and filter

element. clean any oil or debris from the

inside of the air filter base. On some models, the

air filter base will have a sheet metal dust shield

welded to the inside diameter of the base. cut

and remove the shield to allow for maximum air
