Got my new K&N filter on... cant believe how much of a tight fit it is! Im gona have to change my aeroquip fittings on my Goode tank!

Looks the part thou!



Also to all Grahame Goode hose's owners, they've change the colour to samco blue, you cant get the light blue anymore!

 

you can get a smaller one for the escorts

 

Doh!

 

Same as mine m8.

 

Nah dont get a smaller one thats the one you want... But yeah I'm same as you if you have a GGR catch tank and Aeroquip fittings its TIGHT

 

Out of interest why have you returned the breather vent to atmosphere, back into the filter?

 

Nice one mate... car looks top!

Thats how Goode's set it up, does the take off on the back of your breather just vent to atmosphere then? i.e. just open pipe aimed at the floor?

 

If you look at my full bay pic you can see my vent to atnosphere goes around the suspension turret, then goes under the car and vents there...

Nothing wrong with whats been done to yours just not very common!!!

 

Yep thought so.... great stuff!

 

mines like damos,i dont like the oil fumes getting sucked back into the turbo,all the insides of the cooler and turbo end up getting covered in oily deposits you wont get a tighter aeroquip elbow than the one you already have,i had same prob ,so blanked it off and had a boss welded on the back of the tank and ran it there

 

I was thinking of taking the washer out and then try cutting down the threaded section of the fixing...

The fitment isnt a massive problem just means the filter will get bashed around a bit, at Ł70 ish its not the end of the world.

 

you could cut down the nut but that would be no use without cutting down the male boss,which you cant do as it has a tapered seating,so it wouldnt seal

 

I think, I'l just have to live with it for the time being...

 

Yes, mines tight as well..............

 

Very nice!

 

MAX

 

Juste to come back on the breather. it's certernly not a good idea to plug it back to the filter as it will feed warm air and turbulances and that's certainly not what we want
You should put a little filter at the end of the hose and a plug on the cone...

 

This is mine, (sorry its the best pic ive got ATM) its got a 45deg fitting on there which gives a little clearance

I have also placed a small peice of rubber in between the slam pannel and the filter as it was slicing through the rubber at the Fat end of the filter.

 

Stunning mate... is that one of Mike's Cam Covers...?

 

The Cam Cover i've done by myself in the shed but its Mikes Timing Belt Cover and Pre Turbo Filter

 

I meant Cam belt cover! Top stuff!
