2.8 cold air intake

[idahohillcliber]

Anyone done one or fab up a cold air intake for a 2.8 carbed in a B2. I have one and it goes places I should not be going but I keep up with newer FI models my wood buggy buddies have. It does die when I get it almost straight up on a climb. I realize I may have to mess with the jet sizes if I get more air but I want to try it and see where it goes. Mileage now is great,not that I really care, I only use it to embarass big bad trucks and jeeps that shake their heads when they see us go up forward and the backwards up hills they can't climb. Any pics or advice would be great. The motor is completely stock and I am thinking of beefing it up or getting another and doing it while I beat this one up some more. These things are cheap but will go anywhere you have the balls to go. I am running some goodyear ultra grip 215's ( running them reversed direction ! )and keep up with BF Goodrich

Prolly just need to adjust the carb floats a tiny bit lower. Also check where the float bowl vents to, you maybe spilling gas out of the vents and into the carb, thus flooding the engine. Been awhile since I looked at the 2.8 setup.
