Yes. Of course it is routed to the air cleaner. I just wanted mine to have some copper and stainless. Call it "steam punk!"

Better than PEX. Some stainless braided wouldn't look to shabby either!

Lol! Will keep y'all posted.
Hopefully picking up a remanufactured motor this week. Local shop in Dallas stocks them. 1500$ ain't bad for a 100k mile warranty and a new motor

Golen 4.6. I bought it used and rebuilt it.

Been holding off on install as my son and family were supposed to move back here and would be using it. Not giving a stroked MJ to them to use. The old Renix is just fine.
