I failed the first try- no catch bottle for blow by tube. Tech could not find my engine data plate (side of gear case by fuel pump) tried to find mechanical fuel timing (lengthy discussion regarding electronic timing with mechanical pump) I bought a new bottle and mount as the old ones had...

Yah, A friend of mine has pulled his air box in put the stock back in. Seems to be some confusion about the snap test and what they are looking for. Will be interesting times. my truck is stock so no worries here.

check suncoast or Goerend as they have fixes for that on their sites
