Unlike a lot of guys on here I don't run a 14x3 but instead run the Edelbrok 1002 air filter setup. I like it myself but the 14x3 filters look nice too.

 

Yes, you need the bent rod because the threaded hole in the throttle body is off set. It's not centered.

 

I had that on my '98 Dakota. Do you have a bunch of dirt under the filter when you take it off to clean it? Mine seemed like it let alot of stuff go through.

 

how much of a difference does the 14x3 make compared to the stock setup? ik it would let it breathe more but is there any noticable difference?

 

ya i can feel a diff atfer about 2500rpms up pull a little harder

 

How is your bottom end power? Do you have the 14x3 AND a custom exhast?

 

Is there any diffrence between running a 14x3 and a 10x2 besides the amount of air? Is anyone running a 10x2?

 

so u dont notice any difference untill 2500?

 

well i felt a little differnce all the way around but the best part was 2500+

after awhile i thought i loss buttom end so i put the stock back on and could feel the diff loss of power 2500+ and down end was about the same,,, but i also have a 50mm tb

for 30 bucks i dont think you can go wrong,,, i looked at it this way for 30bucks i can take my girlfriend to dinner or take her 4 ride in the truck with the new air cleaner((( my gf smiled so big when i got into that pedal)

or just save a dollar a day and you can get one

but dont think that 4 for 30bucks or going to have a race truck

plus it looks cool as hell!!!!!!!!!!

hope this helps

 

my only thing is that i think it would be sucking all the hot air from under the hood into the intake since its sitting right there on top. i just dont think it would work as good sucking in all that hot air
