I have a K&N air hat. They are hi, but seems better. Probably the best route is an FIPK for the money and performance agains. Got mine from Truckperformance.com .

Thanks a lot Deep Purple. Just a couple of questions. Which airhat is it on the site, because I checked it out and they all say they are for carburetor engines. Also, will this airhat fit my new throttle body with no modification, I dont like having to jimmy rig stuff to fit my engine. Thanks again.

Go to Truckperformance.com. Search by brand "K&N". Under Air Management, air intake plentum, custom plenum. Fits stock and F&B throttle bodies. Use 4"to 3" rubber pipe adaptor from Lowes to mate it to stock air tube. No breather pipe, so I used push-in valve cover breather. Looks like stock.

I meant half a$$ something not have a$$...typo, but the reason i need this air hat is because i just installed a 48mm f and b tb and my stock airhat wont fit. I modded it and it still wont seal on the tb gasket. I just need a new airhat that was made to fit my tb. Thanx

Deep Purple what do you mean by "no breather pipe" do you have a picture. Sorry I guess im a visual learner. I know what a breather is but where does this come into play with the k and n airhat. thanks again man

You have a vent hose that goes from the stock air hat down the the valve cover. The K&N has no pipe in it for the hose. So I pulled the hose and the plastic 90 off and added a push-in valve cover breather. The hose to the air hat supplied clean air to the motor for the pcv valve. The push-in breather has a filter in it, so you still get clean, filtered air for the pcv valve.

I emailed k and n asking about the custom air intake plenum and they replied telling me they dont carry one for my truck. Just for carb engines only. I really like the look of the k and n airhat and I would like to get one. Can you just post me the link of the address where you bought your airhat from Deep Purple? It seems pretty unbelievable that K and N makes these for carb engines and not fuel injected. -Justin

well our throttle bodies share the same 5 1/8" circle that a carb has and the center hold down bolt is in the same place... should work.
that throttle body hat from turbonetics i have is for a carb.

Oh ok see I thought that might be the case but I asked the Truckperformance guy and he seemed to not really know. Thanks Intense. I need one as soon as possible because Im scared to get anything in my intake manifold. Let me know if you can get a pic of that turbonetics airhat. If not Ill just spring for the k and n airhat, if Deep Purple is positive it will fit. I just gotta make sure of the one I buy...I cant waste any more money. Thanks again everyone, sorry for all the questions, Im just tryin to make sure...

The air hat fits the throttle bodys as IntenseDak39 said. That is what I use on my F&B throttle body. A lot of vendors have parts that were made for one thing, but can be used someplace else. The one that IntenseDak39 has may be what your looking for, if the K&N is too hi. Good luck.

i didnt do it... bernd did it and i am not sure what all it included. This is the only one i have seen so i dont know what the before and after are... i think he just got a dremel and rounded out the inside so it could sit on the f&b.
if you want it i will include my s-bolt in case you dont have one already.
please email me greg@dakotatrucks.com

Hey Intense I have one last question about your Turbonetics Airhat. I know the neck flange is 5 1/8 but what is the measurements for the intake flange? Is it 3 inches or 4 or what? Im trying to see if I can use my stock intake tube or if I would have to get a silcone hose reducer. Thanks again man....
