Cyclonic Air Cleaners for 100 Series?
The 80 Series trucks came with cyclonic air cleaners, great stuff, but apparently Toyota felt us American’s didn’t really need them when they spec’d out the 100 series for the states. Not the biggest deal I’ll admit, but I always thought it would be nice to have. So I am reading through an older post from siglo about the modifications he has made to his Kuwaiti 100 series (looks good, by the way) and see an under the hood shot. I’ll be damn if it doesn’t look like his 100 has a cyclonic style air cleaner (plastic instead of the 80’s metal one). And it looks like it could be fitted to a NA spec truck to me without too much hassle. Anyone else have any thoughts?
Here is the USA Spec engine bay….
And His Kuwaiti spec engine bay…
