    Actually yes I have a cone filter and I have hopefully a solution to stop it taking in hot air.

    Terrybullwon is rubbing his hands at this point in time to help me fit it
    Been dreaming of the moment!

      quick tip . if you want to shape ally put some soap on it.
      Don't have gas so no need, soap acts as a flux to transfer the heat from an oxy torch.

      Think I'll just get some thinnish SS off Ebay and have a play. Cardboard effort is done, might look at making one that can be used with a cone filter too as there is a lot more room with no airbox. Have decided against fixing it to the airbox mounting hole as that is stationary and the engine moves so it'll cause some flexing and possibly cracking.

        I've started a new thread to detail my efforts at a cold air intake, turbo heat shield and cone filter install.
