shn7 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I'm working on fitting what I believe is a Bernard Scouse airbox to my K series with QED throttle bodies. It has 90mm trumpets and behind these 20mm spacers. Standard K series fuel rail in use.I've tried both with and without the spacers. Neither has a clean fit without fouling something. I've rotated the fuel rail input hose and that's now ok. I need to extend the fuel return hose to it has enough to get around the box at the front.Does anyone have a detailed guide on fitting one of these and/or advice on with/without spacers?

Member Jonathan Kay Posted April 22, 2017 Member Share Posted April 22, 2017 I haven't seen one, but there are lots of experiences scattered around the archives.How about making notes and taking photos as you solve it, and summarising what's already out there?Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shn7 Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 Thanks Jonathan. Problem solved. I'm keeping the spacers which gives a better verall fit for the airbox but does require it to be modified a little. The recesses for fuel pressure regulator and clutch cable both need adjustment. Fortunately I have a contact who having already done some repairs to the box is willing to make these adjustments and refinish the hole thing for the fun of it and a few beers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangely Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Steve, when my good and very helpful friend Phil and I were fitting my airbox, it fouled the clutch cable. Phil wrote up the modification he made to the airbox to make it fit. We later discovered that my pedal box was slightly different to almost all the rest... Perhaps yours is similar? Mine is a 1996 car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
