IM GATHERING PARTS FOR THE UPCOMING SWAP IN TO MY 81 FJ60. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR AIR INTAKE SOLUTIONS AND I WAS WONDERING IF ANY ONE HAS USED THIS OR ANY THING SIMILAR. https://www.airaid.com/U-Build-It_intake_systems.aspx

If you are running am electric fan. You should be fine. If you are running a mechanical fan then you run into clearance issues. Also make sure whatever system you run complies with local smog laws...

assume you are talking about the 5.3 engine faimily? I'm running the GM intake /filter housing on my 5.7 vortec. I don't like the exposed air filter elements... I get plenty of mud and "stuff" under the hood off-roading.

+1 avoid those if possible. I think the best solution might be the fj62 housing. Check out the web for a place that sells intake tube.l, elbows, etc then build yourself.
