Build quality is good. I would just be concerned about having it that close to the radiator. Is there room to get it into a fender?

no..theres no empty space between the fender and the engine bay, and the if i put a hole through the wheel well it will be directly in front of my tire lol..thats why im gonna build an air box for it. pretty much where the filter is now. gonna do it today ill post up pics later when im done.

yea i know its a first gen but its basically the same set up. i need to get a windshield washer fluid resivoir from a first gen though. because its smaller and in a different location. where mine is now, its seriously cutting into my plans for a nice airbox.

i found that hat in city auto parts off of washington but pick n pull of wadsworth had them too. I dont think i want to make a sheet metal one though... kind of like how stock looking this caddy hat is. and if i really wanted to i could run 4" pipe with it. i had to get a 4"-3" adapter

Ill check in my pile of parts but I did pull the old WW res. from my 92 before I had it scrapped.


hint hint, scrap yards pay double to triple what junk yards do.

ill get back to you in a bit. it has dual pumps because it did come off a blazer w/ rear window wiper but I had it disc, and plugged off since I got the thing

well today i got that trailblazer ss k&n air box and made it fit in my truck, also got a new windshield washer reservoir and relocated it to make more room for my filter. i think the end product turned out to be pretty good looking, whatcha think

smaller ww reservoir mounted in the back corner now

trailblazer ss airbox

finished product

That is looking pretty close to stock or aftermarket. How does it sound now that your freed up the intake?
