Hey fellas,

I posted over on svtp with no luck so I figured I’d try here where the home of the lightning is.

I’ve got a 99 Svt lightning with 11k miles. It is bone stock with the exception of a flow master cat-back and a JLT “cold air” that looks out of place IMO.

I want a stock air box that’s in mint shape to match the truck.

I’ve had a few people offer me a 01+ box with piping and hardware.

Will the newer boxes fit my 99 and it’s stock MAF?

Thanks!

99/00 have a 80 mm MAF. 2001 up have a 90. The airbox bolts to the MAF. So it's likely the 2001 up have a larger hole where the MAF fits tot he box.

99/00 came at 360 hp. 01 up came with 380 hp. Supposedly the 20 hp gain was from the MAF alone. I don't think anyone's ass will feel 20 hp. Unless it's a finely tuned ass.
