Have any of yall had trouble with water splashing up on the filter? My truck gets used hard at the ranch and I'm always in thick dust and when it rains mud. With this type of driving am I better off with my factory air box and K&N? Will a BHAF hold up or will I be getting a new one all the time?

 

piperca,
i do use that filter also with the wrap that i got from them they dont show the wrap on there website but i can look at hoe to see if i got the part number for it . one of the biggest advantages i see of the uni over the normal bhaf is that you can wash it out and keep using it and not have to spend 50 some dollars over and over .

 

Seabee, that would be great! I think that's the way I'm going to go.

BTW: Seabee? Navy?

 

Go to the baldwin website and find a local dealer.I got mine down the road at a farm supply place for around 32.I got 5.00 oil filters to but they are raising price across the board.

 

It's funny how people will spend hundreds or thousands on unnecessary accessories, but whine about a couple hundred bucks for and intake kit

 

piperca, yes im a navy seabee diesel mechanic . i went with this set up in the plan for soon twins after the trannys done soon. i heard that you cant use the scotty 2 with twins our i would have ran that set up . but i really like this one i got

 

What size aluminum sheet is needed and what's the angle at the bend? I called UNI and they're out of stock, but can have one made in a couple of days.

Seabee, sent you a PM!

 

Ok, not sure aluminum is the best choice, but what size and metal type should I use?

 

So the bhaf flow 600 some odd CFM and the stage 1 AFE will do 820 CFM, thats a lot more air.

 

Look for a thread on the BHAF by Masonic Dodge he dynoed higher with the BHAF.

 

Anybody got advice on building the heat shield? Sheet size/metal type?

 

Any one have one of These Things in DusTy ConDiTions.

same as on the "other" site:

That's just the template. I think he wants to know what gauge and metal type to use.

 

uh, doesnt matter a whole lot......SS, aluminum, steel (add paint later)....whatever you can find I guess. Aluminum is probably the easiest to work with but it also depends on what tools you have access to.
