You mean a whole intake by K&N? Because they don't make any intake kits specific for Bonnes. But they do make these X-Stream filters, part # RX-4750 that fit a 3inch intake pipe. If you can find a pipe or get one bent, get this filter:

Gee, that'* a mighty FINE looking filter

Hey, for those who don't know, it'* actually an OVAL.....the BASE is 6x8". You can't see in that pic, but the width you're looking at is the 6", and the DEPTH (from hood to fender) is 8". Tapers to a 5" round x-tream velocity stack. That'* alot of breathing room.

Yes, that IS a lot of breathing room! I extend my deepest gratitude to you and Mach for the hook up on this filter

Now if I get a smaller washer resevoir I can turn that filter to the side so people can really see how HUGE this thing is.

Well if Hector is making these again you can get one from him. That'* where I got my intake. But they do sell intakes for our cars on:

http://www.domesticperformance.com

I think those have a K&N on it, but not this same K&N. If you decide to get a pipe custom bent and get this RX-4750 filter separately, it comes with the K&N sticker.

You could also try some 3 inch PVC like some people have done. There are many options for intakes. It all depends on how much you want to spend.

Hey Drugrunner, your intake pipe connection to the throttle body looks to be a little off center. :?
It looks like the bend radius of the pipe is not correct due to interference of the filter with the fluid reservoir.
Keep a close eye on your rubber connector. Looks like it'* under a lot of stress.

Just to clearify.

Ty is with Domestic Performance and Hector is with Angry Duck Tofu Racing or ADTR, there is a sticky in Vendors pertaining to the mass ADTR request for intakes. Now Hector doesn't have K & N X-...whatever type filters. He provides another cone type filter, if you wish you need to purchase the X-whatever filter elsewhere.

Rob, read this thread for all the important info
