Maybe but I'm done with the inner fender. Painter picks up on the 30th! I might fab a heat shield that clamps onto the filter but I don't know, probably not. Diminishing reaturns at this point. It's a stock 5.3 and it won't get terribly hot under the hood. There's plenty of room to build a closed system in the inner fender but I'm keeping everything as simple as possible. My goal is 300 ponies in 2500 lb truck.
