65frlane Journeyman Posts: 56 From: New City NY USA Registered: Oct 2002	posted 10-06-2003 07:43 PM Does anybody know of a ram Air set-up like the T-Bolt Air Bonnet that will fit in a 65 Fairlane ( small block ). Does the Crites fit even with the braces that go from the Firewall to the shock towers. I tried to use a mid 80's Mustang air cleaner but it hits the braces. I would like to use the T-Bolt set up to the inner headlights but not lose the bracing..Thanks...Geoff IP: Logged

You will possibly have to add the air tube clearance panel for the drivers side if you take out the head inner headlights. It does require moving the battery to another location. IP: Logged

65frlane Journeyman Posts: 56 From: New City NY USA Registered: Oct 2002	posted 10-07-2003 09:56 AM Judging by the pic , do you need the Teardrop hood for it all to fit. Mine is a single Holley 4bbl on a 302. Is this a Crites set-up? Does anybody know exactly what I might need from them. Does the battery have to be relocated? I'm trying to make this as painless as possible IP: Logged

John64 Journeyman Posts: 11 From: Surrey, BC Canada Registered: Oct 2001	posted 10-14-2003 04:13 PM The only place I know that is reproducing "correct" T-bolt style air box is Mark from M&R Motorsports in Ontario, Canada. His email is [email protected]. He now makes a single carb version as well as the dual carb version. The air box that Crites sells, is an oval air cleaner with sides added to them. You will definitly need a teardrop hood (or other type of scoop) and relocate your battery. http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/4va.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/4vb.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/4vc.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/4vd.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/8va.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/8vb.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/8vc.jpg I bought the 2x4 air box from Mark and will be using it on my 289 http://members.shaw.ca/tbolt427/fairlane289.htm ------------------ John P 64 Fairlane 68 Mustang GT/CS [This message has been edited by John64 (edited 10-14-2003).] IP: Logged
65frlane Journeyman Posts: 56 From: New City NY USA Registered: Oct 2002	posted 10-16-2003 02:37 PM Looks like the set-up can get pricey. How much for the Air box from the guy in Canada. Does look good though.... IP: Logged
Tbird Gearhead Posts: 298 From: USA Registered: May 2003	posted 10-16-2003 03:03 PM I believe the last time I priced the ram air box from the guy in Canada it was like $350 or so plus shipping. IP: Logged
