The zork tube doesn't look like it'll clear most driveways. That tube used to go into the stock air box. You can just cap it with those little 2" crankcase filter. It just allows air relief from the WUR diaphragm.

10-4 on the WUR pipe, thanks

I need to adjust the Zork upwards - perhaps even cut the flange pipe length a bit.
It hangs way down. I'll look tomorrow -

When my WUR went bad fuel poured out of that breather into the airbox, I’d be careful that it doesn't pour over something hot

Get a barbed fitting that you can install on your remaining metal air filter box to run it to. That's what I did with my BMC air filter.

Couple more observations:

~Shop replaced the G50 clutch slave cylinder on top of the transmission. Clutch smoothness/action is a TON better.
~Big increase in low boost performance - it was already very good, even better now.
~Zork tube - Gadzooks, I love it. Not *too* much louder than the bullet, now I can hear every bit of the compressor whistle and even more pops and gurgles.

I had to put my Zork back on this weekend...the B&B single just made my car sound like it was sick...I hated it! I love the Zork and my butt dyno tells me that the engine performs better with it. That whistling is the best!

Damn right!

I dont think I will ever run a muffler again on my car. I love the whistle and The turbo does spool up quicker with only the tube..... RSRS, If I may ask, How much was the slave cyl for the trans? Reason why I am asking...... I have a g50-50 conv in my car. While I was moving it out of storage.... my buddy depressed the clutch pedal thinking it was the brakes...no engine/trans in the car..and he blew the slave cyl apart.

The BlownSixDesign intercooler arrived today......not packaged too hot, got beat up.



Looks to be a good design, however:
