Dude! I thought you disappeared?! I've been busy at Pratt, school, and with this crazy F+T project on my '83. Yeah, we should do coffee.

As you might have seen mentioned in one of the other posts, the Turbo models did not get the flapper - the thought being that the turbo's compression action would be heating the air more than enough.

That foam in the airbox was put there to quiet induction noise. It is common for it to start flaking off when it gets old, and that is bad news for the AMM downstream. Its best IMHO to remove it all before it causes trouble.
