Anyone tried to make their own cai, not the gotts. I'm talking about orielly has a section with intake tubing with the different elbows and couplings.

 

i am trying to find a way to make one for my 460 but it is going to be hard i have 2 tubes an try to make it fit in to one is kind of hard i know with 7.3l they can make there owen i will give it a try an find out how it works i just need to make sure it sealed well.

 

on my 94 f150 i had the 4" single, then it Y'ed into the intake. And that was factory Have you tried that?

 

Yea but the only thing i thought about that is that the air will be restricted a little bit. I am trying to get as much free flowing as i can. I was think if i took a why pipe an cut out the inside so it flows in to the to tubes but there is no wall there i am not sure yet i have not really looked at a y pipe yet to do so. Did u seen an thing like power mpg with doing custom cai? Dose your filter look like this K&N Product Information by Part

 

What you could do is do a search in the 99-2003 7.3 section, you'll be able to get an idea how the guys up their fabed up their cold air boxes.

 

yea i am going to use the napa filter sorry cant remember the number but i am going to build off of the i was think this is my plan in my head did not measure an thing yet but get two 3" from the tb then get a y pipe an go to a 4" to the filter. What do u think?

This is the NAPA 6637 air filter setup I have on truck:

 

i'd call that a hot air intake . filter isn't blocked off from engine bay heat or in the fenderwell or .. to draw cooler air . the term cold air intake should be a clue . your sucking more air but it's hot ...............
