First step is to replace the stock air filter with the 6637 mod. You can build your own or buy a kit. Riffraff Diesel has a complete kit that is popular here. I built my own before the kit was available and here is a picture of it.

tehres a distinct difference in the sound on the IDI to the powerstroke. the powerstroke has a high pressure oil pump with a resivour in the front of the motor that you cannot miss with oil lines going to either head on the block.

Unless he's like 90% of us and its collecting dust somewhere. IDI has glow plugs outside the valve covers and the injection pump on the motor... easy to spot.

Hey hussler
in your picture I see you just have a filter.
My question is do you not need a back plate like I see with the cold air kits?
I like to do all my own fab work, and Im thinking about fab'in up a air box.

GT_350, you do not need a back plate like the CIA have on them.

I wrote up a thread on a DIY Tymar not too long ago. Tymar is in Spokane BTW, if you decide to just buy one from Dale instead of build it yourself.
