Air Filter Assembly.

The Concept

The Air Filter assembly needed  to have a Rat-Rod look. 
Not be too big and clumsy,
 and at the same time do its job - clean the air.

We also wanted it to bolt directly onto the Electric Supercharger as 
 this could save some space.

Back to the mighty EvilBay to find a 66mm filter.

66mm Throat on each side of the Supercharger.


This is what we found!


Dress up your engine with an 4 inch round RPC Chrome air cleaner with paper element. Fits 1 & 2 barrel Carburetors with 2-5/8" Neck. Mounting stud included.


 Specs:
Diameter (in): 4 in.
Material: Aluminium
Finish: Chromed 
Height (in): 2-7/8 in.
Air Cleaner Filter: White paper
Mounting stud Included: Yes

The Build

First step - modify the stock air filter assembly.

Before and after - all excess material removed.





Next we need to modify supercharger end of the pipe-work.
We used blue silicone hose to mate the supercharger to the air pipe.
The air filter has then been clamped on to the supercharger. 
A large turbo charger pressure clamp has been used here.
