Intake Tract on a WS6
I have a question about the intake tract on my 1996 WS6. The question I have is that the pipe connecting the air box/MAF to the intake doesn't go straight in...kind of "kinked" on a downward slope. The airbox looks like it sits too high. Is this normal (I have changed a few things...TB, heads, cam etc) because it doesn't look like a straight shot at the intake? I put it back together the way it came from the factory and I'm not missing any parts aswell.

well, to let you know that won't work.... that 3" to 4" one... I tried that one first.. it's way sloppy on the TB, there's no way it'll seal correctly.
Just use the 3" to 3" one and soak it in boiling water for about a minute then it'll just slip right on.
