Help with Riva air filter kit

[818RXP]

Are there any short cuts for not installing the bracket on the front side of the motor??????

[Green Hulk]

Yes. That front bracket is a major pain in the ass.

Take a zip tie and thread it thru one of the bolt holes, wrap it around the power filter tube, pass it back thru the other hole and zip it up. It holds the power filter tube very secure and if you ever need to pull your supercharger the tube just rotates out of the way.

Good luck that bracket is by far the biggest pain in the ass

Hey Hulk can you post a pic of how yours looks?

[Green Hulk]

It's kind of a tight spot to get a pic.

Just picture a zip tie wrapped around the tube... thats how it will look

Finally got it in!!! The zip ties are the key. Thanks for the info. Patience ought to be the first instruction.

[Green Hulk]

Glad you got it and yes, installing those things is a pain in the ass

Should I change to the Denso 27 plugs with this mod? I am running the Denso 24 plugs now. I also did a Riva grate, stock 14-19 Solas, NOPAS, vent fans, extended the intake further forward, 2 degree wedge, and am trying a R&D nozzle. Ride plate holes are filled and its all sanded pretty straight.... Testing next weekend in Havasu!!!

[Green Hulk]

Nah, the 24's will do fine for your setup. Let us know how she runs after the weekend.

I'm going to bring along a temp guage to check the engine compartment temps with and without the fan. Temp there should be well over 100 so any little bit helps. I tried the thermal wrap too....
