GM air box, Greg please read this

Post by **racer12306** » Wed May 03, 2006 3:37 pm

I know that there was a GM model that had the air filter box right on the throttle body. It took a small panel style filter. I believe the engine was a V-6, maybe 3.8L. I cant remember what model it was or the years that had this style box.

The car is an early to mid 90s 4 door fwd car, i believe.

I am conceptualizing an idea for something that would go on my car and i would need a small air box just like the one im thinking of.

I hope Im being descriptive enough, anyone have an idea?

that is way too much work for the amount of time that i have.

Greg if you read this, i think you have a car that has this style air box, but i could be wrong. hence Greg please read this.

If your taking about me, I have a 1990 Buick LeSabre. 3.8 V6. I'll have to check it today and see, but that might be what your looking for. I'll get back to you.

SlvrACR:

Ok, here is a picture of my LeSabre stock intake system. Its on the left side of the engine bay. TB, then tube, then filter and box. I hope this helps you out. Remember, mine is a 1990 with the 3.8 V6. I am not sure if they changed things on the second gen 3.8 or the third gen 3.8.
