Thanks. The one thing ive noticed about the cone style airfilters is, they try and put them behind a shield of some sorts, i guess to try and block heat from the engine and to get colder air? By using this factory airbox, not only would i get cold air directly from the front of my car, but the filter box itself would act as a heat shield, so that the air going into the air box and into the engine would not be mixed with the hotter air in the enginebay.
I guess ill go with the factory air box idea, but im gonna have to think about getting the area ill be cutting out to look good.
As far as a overflow bottle, im still looking for one i like. Theres a few places i can put one. Between the rad support and the grille, on the top of the passengerside fenderwell or driverside. Some overflow bottles lay flat and some stand tall, not sure if the flat ones ive been looking at will fit under the hood yet.
I gotta buy a dremel tool to get at the nooks and crannies in the enginebay, once i get the enginebay cleaned up, ill weld in the rad support. That said i still want to drop the radiator about a half inch if possible, so ill have to midify the lower rad support somehow. I have a few ideas on how to do that, but i gotta while to decide on how to accomplish that.
