hi everyone, ive just bought this samco elbow

i have a bmc on my car now without the caf on it, just wondering if anyone has cut there samco down, or cut the standard elbow down to allow more room so that the caf can fit??
thanks very much

yeah i cut mine slightly cos I have a hillpower kit and there wasnt enough room for the caf before

 

[ma77yD182]

did you run the caf to the lower grill? if so how much work is there involved in getting it there? just doesnt seem to be a space to run it.
cheers

I cut mine a bit too short but there is alot of room to play with. Just cut 10mm off at a time and do a few trial fits. Simple as....

Mine looks the same as yours Meek, except i am using 80mm CAF instead of 70mm (?) that you are.
