Ok, I'll do a search.

There are two reasons why I want to do this.
1. Cold air
2. The MAF never fit well. It rubs on the underside of the hood. My 89 has a diagonal brace under where the MAF sits.
The brace keeps the MAF from sitting low enough to clear
the hood.
I figured that if I relocated the air filter I could then move the MAF a couple of inches so that it would sit lower in the engine bay.

I think I've seen where others have done this.
What required? Where do I ge the parts?
Those that have done this, have you had any problems with
this setup?
Thanks for any and all input!

Then I could use the brake cooling duct to feed air to a cloesed filter setup..
I am using 968/993 style brake cooling ducts for the brakes
