Home made cold air?

Has somebody ever made a cold air intake for my model of truck?
If so do you have a template that i could make one from?
Thanks for all the help!

Do a search on here for amsoil air filters for added ideas. Measure the I.D. of the turbo intake air hose and find a piece of pvc to fit inside of it. Then go to the amsoil website and search for one of their dry universal "EAAU" filters. Select the one that the I.D. flange of the filter inlet matches that of the pvc and you're set. I would select the largest filter that will fit in place of your stock air box. If your searching for a "heat shield" then I believe there is a template in the "tech facts" section posted at the top of this site.

That's a pretty cool site. His airbox is beautiful, I tried making one a while back and it completely fell apart, might hafta copy his a bit. The greaseable bearings is a great idea as well.
