Jim, i'm not saying it won't work, what i'm saying is that you have 5mm
more in diameter on the 2.1L intake... for nothing!
unless you go Digifan (and that is not a good idea)

problemo...

They are just bigger for nothing... just by bending those tabs your ok.

Sorry, you have a great "Right-up" but i'm a bit tired to read it all...

I did 6 of those this summer... but i have no memory... he he he.

All i know is this is one:
