The Official Zoodad Mod Sticky Thread

[BamaSixGun]

The Zoodad mod itself is all about getting more cold air into the intake,
but alot of us have "dressed" it up a bit to add some style to it.

This thread can also be used as a good resourse so new members
can see what the Zoodad is and how they can do it.

So post up pics of your "twist" on the Zoodad mod.

Is that the final one, bama? Didn't I see an earlier post where you were making one out of heat register and a vacuum hose or something?

That's what I have on my truck now, the one I am
working on is kinda just for fun to see how it would work.

Scroll down to post #19 and you can see some pics of the one I am working on.

So, do you guys honestly notice a difference with this MOD?

Mine's just a hole with the airbox snout shoved thru it. Covered with several layers of screen and a few zip ties to hold on the screen. I'll post a picture. Pretty simple but pretty ugly.

EGT's dropped. Stock set-up or aftermarket still has intake dead-ended against a fiberglass wall. Your engine is breathing what it can from under the hood.

I truely believe in it, plus it has this nice sound to it.

Anything to help lower EGT's is good.

The King style zoodad.

I had the pieces laser cut. The material is all stainless steel. The louver had to be custom made to fit the application. Then I had to go to work with a hammer on it. The piece that the louver slides into has 4 M5 studs welded on the back that are 1" long(my advice is to go as short as possible because they can be a pain to start the nuts on). Its just basically like a sliding storm window, the way its made. Then I have the piece that I put behind the fiberglass cutout that matches to it to keep it from pulling out and to make a better seal(I sometimes over do things). I also have a solid piece that I can slide in place of the louver if the need ever arises. If anybody does a setup like this make sure you make your cutout and drill your holes low enough to be able to swap the pieces out easy. .View attachment 7724
