LC Pro Air Intake Kit
You asked, we delivered! The New LC Pro Air intake kit for the 3.0 liter 3VZ trucks and 4Runners. We have developed an intake tube and filter kit designed to eliminate the ugly restrictive filter box, as well as get rid of the plastic intake tube and rubber elbows. The best part is that we're making it more affordable! By using an open element filter and fabricating our own air meter bracket, we were able to reduce the material cost significantly. This all means you get a great product at a lower price than if you were to buy the parts separately! These kits include the ceramic coated intake tube, black silicone hose connections, open element K&N filter, custom air meter bracket, all clamps and bolts needed, and for 1988-1995 Pickup and 4Runner applications only.
NOTE: Not for street use in California. Replacement Filter, see Part #: 3035092.

NOTE: Prior to installing this air intake kit, it is imperative to perform a thorough cleaning of the air tube using a mild detergent and water to eliminate any accumulated debris or contaminants. Failure to do so could result in potential engine damage.
The LC Engineering Pro Air Intake Kit is designed to replace your restrictive stock air box and tube assembly. The kit incorporates an open element, washable K&N air filter to increase airflow and save you the time and expense of buying replacement air filters in the future. When the filter gets dirty just contact one of our sales reps and we can get you a service kit right away! Our kit also includes a mandrel bent stainless steel tube to keep a nice even flow of air to your engine, no kinks or ridges to impede the airflow. This tube is then ceramic coated and polished to retain all that cold air in the tube and repel the heat created inside the engine compartment. We also supply silicone couplers to attach everything together. You will not find a more complete kit anywhere for your 3VZ engine!!!
