ok i know this is a stupid question but i need to know. my mass air was stolen out of my car along with the filter. now i don't know the partnumber to the filter to replace the filter. i looked on k&n website and all they give me is the stock replacement for the filter that goes in the air box. well since that is gone thats not what i need. so i am looking for the p/n for the filter that goes on the end of the cold air intake in side the engine bay. please if anyone knows what it is it is appriciated

Go to a parts store and ask to browse through the K&N catalog. You should be able to find the right filter pretty easily. Just make sure to measure the pipe that it fits on.

good question...

 

[c8ball9]

well they broke the passenger side window to steal the radio, they then popped open the hood to see if there was anything on there they can easily take. the thing i don't get is why take a 88 mass air meter. it was stock and 88s mass air meters are for 88s only. they have a square conection instead of an oval one. so why i don't know. but i found the k&n filter that i need thanks

 

[llamastang]

just asking.

only. they have a square conection instead of an oval one. so why i don't know. but i found the k&n filter that i need thanks

i bet they didn't know that it was only for 88's

I thought 87-88 was SD and 89 and up were MAF.

88 California cars were mass air.

88 California cars were mass air.

this is true. this was probably b/c ford realized the potential of mass air but wasn't ready to modify all of the cars just yet. i could be wrong, who knows?

nope... the SD cars generally put down ~10 more HP than the mass air cars...

they did it for emissions reasons... (hence California)
