Re: Air box mk1
Hi John,
do you mean the original Rover P5 airbox with intake towards between the carbs?

Re: Air box mk1
Hey yes
But it’s not p5 or p6 - it’s a shorter / stubbier type
Was this a custom iitem like the expansion tank was ?
Thanks
John

Hi
Yes looked at those and the early p5 v8 air filter boxes seem to be very different

I have this one and an original P5 box, but not enough room to install ( heater hoses...) I use two KN filters at the other end of the elbows:

Re: Air box mk1
Did you eventually find out what the original was from? I have the same on mine. Still have the original filters.
