    Jeep tub+LS+filter in cowl?

    Has anyone done or seen a Jeep with an LS engine and the intake flipped with the air filter in the cowl area? Brainstorming. The filter being in the cowl allows cooler air, no mud and not as load as in the cab. I'm not sure there is room. Flipped intake would free up room on the front for an...
