Default JLT CAI rubbing oil cap...

Just curious if this is happening to anyone else? Just seems like there isn't any room and it just rubs up against it.

mine rubs against it, but I dont really care lols... I'm gonna be throwing it out when I get the kb on there...

But yea, you are supposed o sand down the edges of the oil cap because the jlt cai for our cars was designed for 99-01 gt's, I'm assuming that the oil cap is in a diff location..

If you are gonna go with a jlt cai, save yourself some money by buying 4" pvc pipe, rubber sleeves, and hose clamps from home depot and fab yourself up one.. I was kind of upset when I received mine, I thought there was some sort of unique design... but it looks like a diy cai..
