14A. AIR FILTER ASSEMBLY AND DUCT

(1991-1993 Models)

A. The air filter canister assembly is made up of a center

section and two end caps which house a cleanable high
flow element. The assembly is attached to a formed
aluminum bracket which is secured in place by either
screws or rivets to the inner fender. Position the filter
assembly so the front of the housing lines up with the front
of the ECM as shown in the photo above.

B. After positioning the entire housing and bracket assembly,

mark the bracket location; then with the bracket separated,
mark and drill the mount holes. Use a 3/32" drill bit.

C. Secure the bracket to the inner fender with the #8 sheet

metal screws provided.

D. Attach the air filter assembly to the bracket with the two

stainless clamps. Make sure the filtration element is securely
attached to the rear end cap and that the crank- case
breather fitting is in place.

E. Place the blue sleeve on the rear cap outlet and then the

plastic elbow. Connect the elbow to the supercharger with
the longer length of flex tube. Secure with the clamps
included.

F. Connect the filter inlet to the stock duct at the right side of

the grill opening.

G. Route the 5/8" breather hose from the fitting on the rear end

cap of the air filter assembly around the rear of the intake
manifold to the breather cap on the left valve cover. Secure
the hose with tie wraps as necessary.
