    where it sits, or just cut the stock air box apart and use the bottom as the tray

    I believe there is something with a Blazer tray. You might have to Google it though because I don't remember the years or specifics.

    A PCM tray out of a 99/00 and possibly other year blazers will fit GP's, but only for 98-03, due to the size of a 97 GP PCM.

    Wow that's an amazing thread. I bought my gp with 160000 on the body, 40k
    On the rebuilt engine. I love it so far. A guy in an 89 s10 slightly modded
    Wanted to race and I blew him away lol. I want to mod it but still get decent mpg
    As my daily driver so how far should I take it?

    Thanks I'm planning on going to the junkyard to look for a 99 blazer because the one closest to me is pull it yourself. where exactly does the tray sit?

    For a 98 you are gonna need to move the coolant overflow bottle before putting in a pretty much any intake.

    You need to buy one off of a 99+ gp. I'm trying to find one for myself, look at junkyards if u have some locally. Or look for people parting otu their cars.

    Nope, not true. I have a cold air intake and my 97 coolant overflow bottle is still in there. Not hard to do.

    Home Depot 4" intake, cone filter.

    As long as you don't do some big humungous box, you don't need to move the coolant bottle.

    on my PAU i currently have a Home Depot Racing 4" intake with a 45* elbow (required to clear my coolant tank) and an open cone right behind the headlight. filter was 10 bucks at Advance auto.

    Total Invested? maybe 20 bucks.

    and i STILL have 7ft or so of 4" PVC pipe under my deck. lol

    I can hang the filter right off the TB but it throws the MAF off too much. if i add a few inches of tubing it hits my coolant tank. thus the 45 elbow. i don't want it there but for now it has to be til i hit the dyno.
