Here is the custom lid I created instead of the Orange for Variety time to time.

Beautiful setup.I had one and liked the large filter so close to the pavement but a vette is already there. Get an extra filter to save time.

Looks great! What's your plans for winter time? I've been wanting to do it for years but worried about the freeze-up.

 

[Dave Haddon]

Keeping my stock unit and will make a call once the weather closes in. I think now that i have had my first go at this, i can put it on and off in ohh a day..LOL

Looks great! My era of the Vararam is coming to an end just as yours starts! Mine comes off for good in a week or so. Going with the 6.4 intake.
The Vararam is a real deal CAI for the stock 5.7.

Nice job and looks good.

 

[Dave Haddon]

Thanks guys..kinda cool to do it yourself ..a guy has to know his limitations however and i have reached mine..LOL

What will you be asking for it?

 

[Dan Topp]

NA is great as long as you don’t change your mind.I had to lose it and the cam when I gave in to a blower setup,but live and learn.Then lower end fun begins.

 

[ThunderMug95]

What will you be asking for it?

It may be spoken for, but it will be minimal. Its held up okay, but its far from pristine! I will mark you as second in line.
@Dave Haddon you will enjoy it! Does the Warlock have AGS? If so, either do the limiter trick or pull out all but the top and bottom shutters for the summer.

Sage advice….Ive stated plans before, but who knows where I will end up. Hoping the LT’s Im installing today and intake when it gets here satisfy me for a while. Ha!

 

[Dave Haddon]

I had no issues with mine last winter, lots of blowing snow and sub zero temps. It should be noted I have a short commute and my truck stays home if there's deep snow. 2wd doesn't like more than 6" of powder. I also park in a way that snow doesn't get impacted into my front end, so that probably helped.
